Liselotte Pulver is one of the most beloved and instantly recognizable Swiss-German actresses of the mid-20th century. Born in 1929, she became famous across Europe for her infectious laughter and radiant, often mischievous smile, which earned her the nickname “Lilo.”
Pulver rose to prominence in the 1950s and ’60s, starring in numerous German-language hits like Ich denke oft an Piroschka (1955), a classic that cemented her image as a charming, vivacious young woman. Her career was not limited to Europe, she also successfully crossed over into international cinema, starring opposite Hollywood giants such as James Cagney in the Billy Wilder comedy One, Two, Three (1961).
