Larisa Eryomina

[1] Born in Tiraspol, the second largest city of the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic, Eryomina is prominent among European actors and directors living in the United States.

Her graduation parts were Desdemona of Shakespeare's "Othello" and the Countess in "The Marriage of Figaro," a musical production based on the play by Beaumarchais.

"That girl can play anything", said Andrei Goncharov, the artistic director of the Moscow repertory theatre where Eryomina worked.

Eryomina and her family left the Soviet Union for the United States at the peak of her acting career, having four offers for leading roles in major movies at the time of her immigration.

After a stage production based on the play "Between East and West" by Richard Nelson,[2] Silvia Dreik, a theatre critic from the Los Angeles Times said "...Larisa Eryomina is an actress of a caliber of Greta Garbo and Ingrid Bergman."
