Discovered by film director Václav Krška, she was recognized as one of the rising stars of the 1950s despite featuring only in six films (and one student film).[1][2][3][4] She committed suicide, in a widespread opinion, after a complicated platonic romance with married opera singer Přemysl Kočí, aggravated by various rumours.[1][2]
In 2000 Marek Bouda shot a documentary Nelze umírat štěstím (One Should Not Die of Happiness) about her life.[1][3] In 2001 Jana Havlíková published a book Nevyjasněná úmrtí VII (Unexplained Deaths VII) about lives and deaths of actors Jana Rybářová, Karel Höger and František Husák.
