Lucie Labass

Lucie Labass, a Romanian stage and screen actress, was active during cinema's formative years. She performed from 1915 to 1931, a sixteen-year career that began when she was about twenty-two. Born in Zalau, Romania, she went on to appear in numerous productions of the silent era. With natural breasts and black hair, she embodied a classic look of the period. Her career spanned the transition from silent films to early talkies. She was straight and of Caucasian ethnicity. Tragically, her life was cut short when she died on August 24, 1932, at the age of forty. Though she passed away relatively young, her work remains a part of early film history.
