Alla Nazimova. Alla Nazimova born Marem-Ides Leventon, Russian: Марем-Идес Левентон; June 3 [ O.S. May 22], 1879 – July 13, 1945) was a Russian-American actress, director, producer and screenwriter. On Broadway, she was noted for her work in the classic plays of Ibsen, Chekhov and Turgenev.
May 31, 2024 · Alla Nazimova was a Russian-born and Russian-trained actress who won fame on the American stage and screen. At age 17 Alla Leventon abandoned her training as a violinist and went to Moscow to work in theatre with V.I. Nemirovich-Danchenko and Konstantin Stanislavsky.
Kenneth Anger’s claim that Nazimova hired only “homosexual” cast members cannot be verified, but retains significant power (Anger 1975, 113). As film historian Patricia White puts it, Salome stands today as a unique effort to produce a “female movie modernism” (White 2002, 61).
