Ogawa Mayumi is a Japanese actress born in Adachi, Tokyo, Japan. She graduated from a Japanese and Western Women's Junior College with a degree in Japanese literature.

Her father, Shin, was an actor affiliated with the theater group Shin Tokyo, founded before the war.

She began studying ballet and Japanese dance at the age of five. During her student days, she was an avid reader of Nagai Kafu and even tried spending a day as described in his diary. Also, during high school, she frequented kabuki theaters.

In 1961, she passed the entrance exam for the Bungakuza Attached Research Institute and entered as a first-term research student. In 1962, she made her stage debut as a Bungakuza research student in "Komyo Kogo."

In 1963, she made her film debut in "Mother".

In 1965, she was promoted to a member of the Bungakuza theater company.

In 1967, she married Hosokawa Toshiyuki, who was also a member of Bungakuza, and they had a daughter.

In 1971, she left the theater company.

In 1973, she divorced from Hosokawa.

In June 1981, she co-starred with Hashizume Tsutomu, a classmate from Bungakuza, in the stage play "Doris and George." This led to a rapid connection between them, and they announced their engagement in September. They never married, and their engagement was called off in 1985.

In recent years, she hasn't been actively involved in acting, but it was revealed that she had been ordained as a nun in the Shingon sect.
