She was quite an attractive blond Swedish actress. But, according to Ephraim Katz's "The Film Encyclopedia",
her private life seems to have been a kind of mess. She came to the US with her father at her age 13. At 16, she
ran away from her home for entering burlesque business. She made an attempt to comit suicide in 1959 because of
her broken marriage and some other unhappy experiences of that sort. Finally, she died due to an overdose of barbiturates
at the age of 36. Anyway, I think also she had an attractiveness all those other actresses who came from the northern
part of Europe had, namely the transparent beauty like a crystal glass.
