Tereza Srbova was born in Prague, Czech Republic. She spent most of her adult life abroad in Paris, New York and London where she currently lives. She holds a masters degree in culture anthropology as she originally thought of becoming a journalist. While undertaking her studies, she was approached by a modelling agency Elite Paris and appeared in several perfume and cosmetic's campaigns such as Clarins and Dior. Over time, her childhood passion for singing and performing grew stronger and she enrolled into a part time drama school. This hobby turned quickly into a career path after her debut appearance in David Cronenberg's Eastern Promises.
