A was born in 1909 in Minsk, White Russia, to poor parents.

In the winter her father used to [farrikhn] galoshes.

In 1918, due to her father's passing, she had to leave her studies in the craftsmen's school. Due the bad economic situation, A. in 1920 was taken into a children's home where she learned  for for a short time to be a seamstress. Afterwards she went to a Soviet school, where she learned until 1924.

As a child A. was taken together with the children, and for them there were plenty of times when she had heard of tales of the theatre. Already in a children's home A. participated in the productions and later in a dramatic circle.

In 1924 A. went into the Yiddish State Institute for the Scenic Arts, and then went automatically over to "Vim't".
