Ulrike Krumbiegel was born in Berlin when the country was still split into East and West. When she was 15 years old, she heard a radio show announcing a theater group called Beliner Volksbuhne was looking for actors and she auditioned which led to her first part in the play Die Nacht nach der Abschlussfeier. From there she had the acting bug and threw herself into learning and practicing the craft. In 1986 she joined the Deutsches Theater group where she would stay for more than 15 years and appear in several plays. Spending several year working in East German movies and TV shows, when the Berlin Wall came down, Ulrike was in a perfect spot for her career to explode. In the 1990’s she appeared in more than 16 TV shows and movies. As the 2000’s came around, she didn’t slow down and was now considered one of the best character actors of her generation. Ulrike has been appearing in the long running crime series Tatort since the mid 1990’s and still appears in current episodes with an ongoing, recurring character that has lasted for 25 years. Ms. Krumbiegel shows off her killer can in Der Bruch (1989) that catches the fetching German walking across the room nude and putting on a coat. As she pulls the coat on, we get some side boob and a fantastic shot of her sweet seat. With a career that has lasted more than four decades, Ulrike shows no signs of slowing down. Here’s to hoping she gets naked again soon and gives us Der Bone!
