Sanmao (三毛) literally "three hairs" was the penname of the popular Taiwanese author Chen Ping (陳平) (March 3, 1943-January 4, 1991). In English also known as Echo or Echo Chan.

Sanmao's books mainly deals with her own experiences from studying and living abroad. They were immensely popular in Taiwan and Mainland China, and her suicide in a hospital came as a chock to many of her readers. From 1976 to the time of her death, Sanmao published more than 20 books.
