Actor

Date and place of birth: 16.09.1928, Stânceni, died at 74 Studies: "Szentgyörgyi István" Theatre Institute, Cluj, 1953

After several seasons spent at the National Theatre of Cluj-Napoca, Bacău and Constanța, he joined the Oradea State Theatre. A jovial and overweight actor, he brought to the stage a zest for life and relaxation. He had the knowledge and ease of appearing on stage – the lack of complexes. He also played many important roles in Oradea. He liked to recite Eminescu, Blaga, Bacovia – the latter even performing a personal recital in 1973, entitled "I Hear the Matter Crying". A year and a month later, while rehearsing the show "Is Life a Wagon?" by Paul Everac, on the last day of the year, flying to Bucharest for the funeral of his father-in-law, he crashed in a plane, not far from his native village, near Sibiu. Life was no longer like a wagon… and he sleeps eternally in his native land.
