From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Uschi Glas (born March 2, 1944) is a popular German film and television actress.
Born in Landau, Bavaria, Glas started appearing in films as early as 1965. Her breakthrough role was that of Barbara in the unconventional Zur Sache, Schätzchen (Go for It, Baby) (1968), which captured the spirit of the times in that it presented youthful protest against the German Establishment and hinted at the loosening of morals in the wake of the Sexual Revolution.
For decades, the tabloid press would refer to Glas as "Schätzchen" although, starting already in 1968 and lasting into the mid-1970s, Glas's career took a sharp turn towards the trivial. She appeared in countless slapstick movies, many of them set at a German gymnasium, playing the older sister of a student who keeps playing nasty tricks and practical jokes on his helpless teachers.
In the 1980s and 1990s Glas concentrated on her television work, appearing in a succession of TV series tailored to her person, playing, among other characters, the ideal teacher (Sylvia - Eine Klasse für sich), an energetic businesswoman (Anna Maria - Eine Frau geht ihren Weg), and a veterinarian (Tierärztin Christine). She also appeared in many feature-length made-for-TV movies.
Glas married Bernhard Tewaag in 1981, and the couple have two children. Recently, however, her life has been shattered by Tewaag's leaving her for a younger woman and filing for divorce.Currently she is full of sorrows about her son Benjamin Tewaag , who fills the German newspapers with stories about alcohol excesses.
