Biography

Eero Spriit (born September 4, 1949), is an Estonian actor, theatre producer and director, and film and television producer. Spriit's career as an actor began in the early 1970s. Eero Spriit was born as one of two children in Pärnu to journalist, satirist, and politician Edgar Spriit and journalist Ester Spriit (née Tartu). His parents divorced when he was young and his father married dancer and dance pedagogue Elonna Goretski. From this union, he has a half-brother, Egon Spriit.
