Life
Stamate was born in Bucharest. She credited her older brothers with having fostered her interest in the theatre, by taking her to plays and opera when she was a child.[2]
Having initially studied law,[3] she graduated from IATC in 1967. Best known as a stage actress, she spent most of her career at the Teatrul de Revistă Constantin Tănase in Bucharest, where she became part of the company after first working in theatre at Arad. She was married to actor Dan Ivănescu in 1966, at the age of twenty, but they had no children and divorced in 1977; she never remarried.[4]
