Anna Dymna [ˈanna ˈdɨmna] (née Dziadyk [ˈd͡ʑadɨk]) (born July 20, 1951 in Legnica, Poland) is a Polish TV, film and theatre actress. Foundress of a charity foundation Mimo Wszystko (Against the Odds).
Anna Dymna intended to study psychology before she decided to sit an entrance examination for the Ludwik Solski Academy for the Dramatic Arts in Cracow. While still at studies, Dymna already performed at the Juliusz Słowacki Theatre in Cracow. In 1969 she played the role of Isia and Chochoł in the performances of Stanisław Wyspiański's Wesele. Dymna made her film debut also when she was still a student. She played a role in Henryk Kluba's Pięć i pół bladego Józka (1971) but, because that film was actually never shown on screens, her first official film role is considered to be the role of Gabrysia in the same year's Szerokiej drogi, kochanie directed by Andrzej J. Piotrowski. Dymna became popular with television viewers owing to her role of Klarysa in a TV series Janosik (1973). The later role of Ania Pawlak in Polish cult comedy films Nie ma mocnych and Kochaj, albo rzuć turned out to be even more successful. She also appeared in a number of Jerzy Hoffman's melodrama films.
Dymna was employed by the National Helena Modrzejewska Old Theatre in Cracow immediately after her graduation in 1973 and has performed on its stage since then. Her major roles included characters of beautiful women, e.g. Kora in Noc listopadowa ("November night"); Anna in Warszawianka ("The Varsovian lady"); and Ania in The Cherry Orchard by Anton Chekhov. Later she also performed in Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain; Joyce's Exiles; and The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov.
