She contributed to the renewal, since the 1950s, of the art of puppetry in Europe and the rest of the world. She was director of the Țăndărică Theatre in Bucharest. From 2000 until 2004 she was president of the International Puppetry Association in Charleville-Mezieres, in Ardennes, and co-founded with Jacques Felix, the National School of Puppetry Arts in that city. In 1978 she won the Erasmus Prize together with other noted puppeteers Yves Joly, Peter Schumann, and the Napoli brothers."
