Uta Levka
Uta Levka (born May 26, 1942 in Cottbus ; born Uta Lewitzka ; also Eva Eden or Uta Levy ) is a former German actress .
Life
The graduate of a hotel management school took an early interest in film and photography. In the early 1960s, she came to film as an extra in the Bavaria studios in Geiselgasteig . During the shooting of the film Zwei Whiskey und ein Sofa (1963) Levka met the well-known actress Maria Schell , who made it possible for her to train as an actor and arranged a larger role in the television film Ninotschka (1965). She was also given major supporting roles in feature films. As a rule, she mimed calculating seductresses with a dubious reputation, as in three Edgar Wallace films . Then she became known to a larger audience through her participation in the two erotic classics Girls Between Sex and Sin and Carmen Baby . Levka also made some television appearances and starred in her last film, The Living Corpses of Dr. Mabuse , a nurse made from body parts.
In 1971 she suddenly broke off her film career.
