Swedish film actress Mona Mårtenson (1902 – 1956) appeared in 28 films between 1923 and 1949. With her friend Greta Garbo she had her big breakthrough in the silent masterpiece Gösta Berlings saga (1924). Garbo went to Hollywood and became a legend, but Mårtenson had also an impressive stage and film career in Scandinavia.
