Life

[edit]

Janoušková was born in 1930 in Prague to Rudolf Janoušek, a jeweller. She was enthused by ballet and acting. While she was a grammar school student, her parents were sent to a concentration camp[1] and only her mother returned. During the Second World War she performed at the Czechoslovak National Theatre from the age of eleven[1] and then she joined Disman's radio ensemble.[1] Her mother, Hedvika Janoušková (née Neumannová), married again after the war. Her new husband, like her father, was also a jeweler.

After the war, Janoušková made a living as a clerk-correspondent for some time. Lucerna manager František Spurný brought her to perform at domestic and foreign shows. For example, she worked with Eman Fiala on a cabaret. She was able to perform in German and French films. From 1981 to 1989 she performed at the National Theatre in the role of Barbara in the opera Zuzana Vojířová . In 1983 she was in the TV film of Zuzana Vojirova.[2]

In 2009 she received the František Filipovský Award for her long work dubbing films.[1] She was particularly known for her work dubbing animated films for children. She was known particularly as Maya the Bee.[3]

Janoušková died in Strašnice in 2019. She had been living alone and had few visitors.[3]
