Berta Zemel, actress

Berta Zemel nee Bertha Zemelmacher was born in Sao Paulo on 6 August 1934. She was already 38 years old when she got the title-role in 'Vitoria Bonelli' , a nightly soap-opera broadcast by TV Tupi from 13 September 1972 through to 14 July 1973. Ms Zemel died on 25 February 2021

Berta Zemel is congratulated by Leonardo Vilar for her Sacy in 1962.
Zemel in Dostoievsky's 'White nights' staged at TV Tupi. 
'Melodias' column 'Gente de Teatro' of June 1964, brings a photo of Berta Zemel, Odavlas Petti (*1929 +24 July 1997) and Gustavo Pinheiro in Dostoievsky's 'White Nights' (Noites brancas), produced by Teatro Popular do Sesi, translated and adapted by Ms Zemel herself. It opened on 28 February 1964, at Teatro Maria Della Costa. It ran for months on end. I must have seen it by the end of 1964. It was the first time I saw a real theatre play in my life. 
'Vitoria Bonelli' ran from 13 September 1972 through to 14 July 1973.
