At 5 years old, she moved with parents to Malmö where she grew up.
Since she often let herself be photographed in a low décolleté / neckline or a skimpy bikini, she also made a name for herself as a pin-up girl.
In 1969 she stopped her stage career and has since devoted herself to painting and running a restaurant and a gas station by the motorway for 25 years.
She performed at the prestigious Mikado restaurant in Tokyo during the 1964 Olympic Games.
Since she had already started playing the saxophone at the age of 6, she decided ultimately for a career in the music business. As "the youngest European saxophonist" she toured through many countries from the North Cape to the Mediterranean Sea.
