[edit] Biography

Henrik Martin Marinus Malberg was born at Skolegade 7 in Aarhus Denmark on 4 December 1873. He was the son of Peter Broch Malberg and Catrine Marie Schebye. His brother, Peter Malberg, was also an actor.

Malberg made his stage debut in 1896, then worked with a touring company for several years. Between 1902 and 1905 he was based with the Aarhus Theater. On 11 May 1906, Malberg married Anna Augusta Hansenmeyer. Then, for the next five years, Malberg was the principle actor at the Dagmar Theater in Copenhagen. In 1910, he became director for a Danish touring company, then once again returned to the Dagmar (1912-1914) and afterwards, the Alexander Theater (1914-1917). In his later years, Malberg was employed at The Royal Theater in Copenhagen.

Malberg made his film debut in 1910 in the silent film, The Picture of Dorian Gray. Malberg appeared in 17 films -- a relative few compared to the 67 films his brother made. Malberg also cowrote two stage plays: Bolettes Brudefærd (with Orla Bock) and Gamle Postgaard (with Axel Frische).

Malberg died on 28 September 1958. The address where Malberg was born is currently a dinner theater in Aarhus.
