Biography
Dace Akmentiņa was born Doroteja Šteinberga on 3 July 1858 in Kreis Bauske to a poor family. She attended school for 3 years. From 1875, Akmentiņa lived in Riga. Here she worked in the theatre and sung in a choir, but also worked as a seamstress. Her first role was as Vana in 1886, in Mikhail Glinka's opera A Life for the Tsar. It was this role which launched her acting career. Her acting career declined after 1914, with her last performance taking place in 1922.[2][3] In her height, she was considered a fashionable woman during the period of Art Nouveau.[4]
