About Mitzi Hajos

Edited by the community

Mitzi Hajos was a Hungarian actress whose career spanned over three decades on Broadway. Born in Budapest, Hungary, she began performing in music hall shows in Europe as a young teenager. At age 20, she moved to the United States at the invitation of William Morris, appearing in Barnyard Romeo, a show she had performed in Vienna. From 1914 to 1925, she worked exclusively for opera producer Henry Wilson Savage. She was often described as "tiny" and "diminutive" and frequently played children or characters pretending to be children. A reviewer in the New York Times approved, saying, "she makes such an adorable boy, too."

Between Broadway appearances, she toured the United States with her shows. Her career was notable for its length: from 1911 to 1942, she was active for 31 years, starting around age 22.
