Born Ludmila Babková. She made over sixty films between 1931 and 1957. Before World War II, she also acted in Germany, where she was banned from working as from 1938 because of her love affair with the married Nazi Joseph Goebbels. She filmed in Italy from 1941 to 1944 and in Bohemia from 1944 to 1945. After the war she was arrested and imprisoned for over a year for alleged collaboration. In 1947 she married puppeteer Jan Kopecký, nephew of a Communist minister, and toured with him. In 1948 she emigrated with him to Austria. While abroad, she starred, among other things, in Federico Fellini's film I Vitelloni. In 1958 she ended her acting career.
