Happy70th Birthday Ursula Glas


Helga Ursula Glas was born on March 2, 1944 in Landau an der Isar, Bavaria. Glas started appearing in films in 1965. Her breakthrough role was that of Barbara in the unconventional 1968 movie “Zur Sache, Schätzchen”. From then on, the tabloid press would refer to Glas frequently as "Schätzchen".
 
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Glas appeared in many slapstick movies, notably in three films of the seven-part series “Die Lümmel von der ersten Bank” (1967-1972). She also appeared in two Euro-westerns: “The Half-Breed” (1966) and “Alleluia and Sartana, Sons of God” (1972).
 
In the 1980s and 1990s Glas concentrated on television work, appearing in a succession of TV series tailored to her person, playing, among other characters, a veterinarian in “Tierärztin Christine” (1993), an energetic businesswoman in “Anna Maria – Eine Frau geht ihren Weg”, and the ideal teacher in “Sylvia – Eine Klasse für sich”. She also appeared in many feature-length made-for-TV movies. In total, Glas appeared in more than 75 film and TV productions.
 
In 2004, Glas published a memoir, Mit einem Lächeln (With a Smile).
 
Today we celebrate Ursula Glas’s 70th birthday.
