Life

Annenkova-Bernár was born in between 1859 and 1865. She studied in a Saint Petersburg's Mariinskaya gymnasium,[1] later trained as an actress and obtained her first acting work in the provinces in 1880.[2] Eventually she took a place at a Moscow Goreva's theatre where her skills were appreciated.[3]

She took to writing whilst she was living with Modest Pisarev. He was an actor involved with running Anna Brenko's theatre in 1880.[4] Her lover's influence was useful in obtaining contacts in the publishing world. It was alleged that he was an unattributed co-author because he was involved in strong editing of her work.[2]

In 1903 she appeared in her own play about Joan of Arc, Doch Naroda (People's Daughter, published the same year), staged by the St Petersburg's Maly Theatre.[1]

This was the most successful of her plays. In 1917 she retired to Orenberg where she continued to write but she mainly ran a theatre for young actors.[3]

She died in 1933 in Orenburg.
