Takasugi Sanae, born Kinoshi Hiroko (喜熨斗弘子) in Asakusa, Japan, was a Japanese actress whose former stage name was Shimizu Hiro (清水ヒロ).

She was married to thirdgeneration Ichikawa Danjiro (三代目市川段四郎), and they had three children: Ichikawa Eno, fourth-generation Ichikawa Danjiro, and Ichikawa Yasuko (市川靖子).

She made her film debut that same year with "The Girl Next Door."

Takasugi Sanae passed away from a heart attack on November 26, 1995, at the age of 77.
