Biography

Mari Jürjens, née Mari Pokinen (born May 27, 1988), is an Estonian actress and singer. She graduated from the University of Tartu Viljandi Culture Academy in 2011 as a professional actress, and joined the Von Krahl Theatre in Tallinn. In 2010, Jürjens debuted with the 11-track album 22 and released a second album, "Maa saab taevani", in 2013. Accordingly, the public recognises her as a singer rather than actress. Her best-recognised role so far has been an appearance in the Estonian crime series Kättemaksukontor.
