Timeline

1958

She was "posthumously rehabilitated in absence of a crime" in 1958.

1937

On 15 December 1937 Leiko was arrested on false charges of belonging to a "Latvian nationalist conspiracy". On 3 February 1938 she was shot and buried in a mass grave at the secret NKVD killing field at Butovo, near Moscow.

1935

Leiko had one daughter, Nora, who married a retired Soviet diplomat and lived in Russian Georgia. When Nora died in childbirth in 1935, the actress agreed to raise her granddaughter in Riga and traveled cross country to fetch her. On the return journey she was delayed in Moscow, where she accepted an invitation to become a permanent member of the Latvian State Theatre.

1933

After the Nazi seizure of power in 1933, she returned to her native Latvia.

1930

The decision being a member of the Latvian State Theatre would cost Leiko her life. Xenophobia played a major role in Stalin's political purges of the late 1930s, as the dictator was determined to eliminate foreigners (including Latvians) from positions of power and influence. In December 1937 the Latvian State Theatre was shut down and virtually the entire company, including Leiko, was arrested on fabricated charges of belonging to a "counter-revolutionary nationalist group" in league with fascists.

1918

The cinema offered Leiko a broader range, enabling her to tackle comedy and contemporary drama as well as costume epics. Her 26 screen credits include "Kain" (1918), "Lola Montez" (title role, 1919), director F.W. Murnau's "Satanas" (1920), and "Die Rothausgasse" (1928). Three were directed by Guter, though their relationship had ended by 1919.

1917

She was an actress, known for Die Diamantenstiftung (1917), Satanas (1920) and Freie Liebe (1919).

1910

She studied at Vienna's Imperial Academy of Music and Dramatic Art before moving to Germany in 1910, settling in Berlin in 1917.

1908

In 1908 her lover, then actor and later director Janis Guter, was suspected of involvement in the murder of a policeman, and the couple fled to Austria via Denmark.

1887

Marija Leiko was born on August 14, 1887 in Riga, Russian Empire.
