  • Trivia
    German exotic dancer, cabaret artiste and actress, the daughter of a violin virtuoso. She studied acting under Maria Moissi (1915) and dancing under Rita Sacchetto. Berber began on stage in Berlin in 1917 and quickly made headlines, as much for being the first sexually explicit nude dancer of the silent screen, as for her dissolute and scandal-ridden private life. Addicted to alcohol and cocaine, she died aged 29 of consumption.
