Born on 4 August 1894 in Babin, near Czernowitz, Bukovina.

She came to America as a child and there she completed high school.

With the help of her sister and brother-in-law (Rose and Nathan Goldberg) and Hollander, she entered into vaudeville and started very young, playing a "pregnant" girl in a sketch  "Maurice, my Husband".

H.'s first appearance on the legitimate stage was with her brother-in-law as "The Ill Child" in Gordin's "Two Worlds."  When Jenny Goldstein got sick, H. replaced her, though without success; she then became a chorus girl in the Lyric Theatre.

Only after appearing in the Lyric Theatre as "Lise [or Lisa]" in "People," a play by Shalom Aleichem, she kept the attention of the critics and played after that for a season at the Lennox Theatre and one season with Schwartz in the Irving Place Theatre.

After her wedding to Isidore Hollander, she followed the same path as he did, appearing in her first roles in drama, comedy and the operetta.
