Biographical Notes
Harriet Andersson wurde am 14. Januar 1932 in Stockholm geboren. Mit 15 Jahren verliess sie die Schule, um Schauspielerin zu werden. Zwei Jahre später entdeckte Ingmar Bergman sie für den Film. Ihr Debüt als dramatische Theaterschauspielerin gab Harriet Andersson 1954 in Malmö: besonderen Erfolg hatte sie als Ophelia in "Hamlet" und 1956 als "Anne Frank" im Intimen Theater Stockholm.
Nach anfänglichen Nebenrollen und kleinen Auftritten ("Während die Stadt schläft") wurde Harriet Andersson zu einer der bevorzugten Hauptdarstellerinnen in Ingmar Bergmans Filmen, angefangen bei "Die Zeit mit Monika" und "Abend der Gaukler". Seit einigen Jahren spielt sie in allen Filmen von Jörn Donner, mit dem sie verheiratet ist.
Harriet Andersson erhielt für ihre schauspielerischen Leistungen verschiedene nationale und internationale Preise, unter anderem den Preis der deutschen Filmkritik 1962/63 und die "Coppa Volpi" in Venedig 1964 für "Zu lieben". (lhg Oktober 1968)
