Anna Sten
Ukrainian-born Hollywood actress Anna Sten (1908 – 1993) rose from Kyiv’s theatre scene and early Soviet silents to German talkies before Samuel Goldwyn brought her to the United States, promoting her as “the next Greta Garbo.” Notable films include Nana (1934), We Live Again (1934) and The Wedding Night (1935). Her cosmopolitan career and star-making myth embody the transnational currents of 1930s cinema.
