Despite being born into a theatrical family, Bergstr�m's childhood dream was to work with animals. Aged 15, she travelled to Mississippi in the USA as an exchange student and lived there for a year. During this time, she became fascinated with the theatre and decided that the stage was her calling. Back in Sweden, she won a part in a TV series but failed in her first attempt to achieve a place at stage school. Thanks to tuition from Margreth Weivers, she succeeded on her third attempt in 1985.
