Life

She graduated from the Academy of Drama and Film in Budapesti in 1905, and became contracted in Kolozsvár.

In 1908, she became part of the National Theatre and, in December 1912, was contracted by the Hungarian Theatre between 1914 and 1935, and acted again in the National Theatre, and later featured in the Hungarian Theatre and Comedy Theatre.

In 1928, she became a life member of the National Theatre.

She had a natural sense of humor, and was especially excelling in comedies, but she also prevailed in renditions of Shakespeare and Shaw's plays.
