Nina Vanna
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nina Yasikova Kind Hakim Provatoroff, known by her stage name of Nina Vanna (27 September 1899 – 8 November 1953),[1] was a Russian-born British film actress who appeared in a number of films during the 1920s.
She sometimes played in historical dramas, playing Lady Jane Grey in the first of three film versions of her life (Lady Jane Grey; or, the Court of Intrigue) and Lucrezia Borgia in what may be the first of several versions.
Vanna was married three times, first to Robert Kind from whom she was later divorced, secondly to film director Eric Hakim (1900–1967), who she also divorced, and finally to Peter Provatoroff from 1946 until her death.[2][3][4]
