She later joined the Nifu Eiga Film Company and made her debut as an actress in the movie "Ginrei Fuji ni Yomigaeru" in 1933. Her performance caught the attention of the industry, and she adopted the stage name Atsuko Ichinomiya. In 1934, Atsuko became a research student at the Tokyo Takarazuka Theater, which led her to further opportunities in both theater and film. She appeared in various films and plays, establishing herself as a notable actress.

She appeared in movies such as "春の戯れ" ("Spring Play") and "おかあさん" ("Mother"), and she was a regular in popular TV series like "女と味噌汁" ("Women and Miso Soup"). Her dedication to acting and her memorable roles contributed to her lasting impact on the entertainment industry. Atsuko Ichinomiya passed away on February 16, 1991, at the age of 77, due to liver failure. Her contributions to Japanese cinema and television continue to be remembered and appreciated.
