Hedenbratt's breakthrough as a jazz singer came when she performed at the Nalen jazz club in Stockholm in 1951. Throughout her career, she mainly worked in Gothenburg, where she was born and where she lived all her life.[2]

She was part of the cast for several of Hasse & Tage's variety shows, including Gröna hund and Gula Hund, and she also worked with musicians such as Jan Johansson,[1] Gösta Bernhard, Putte Wickman, Charlie Norman and Beppe Wolgers.[3]

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Hedenbratt performed together with Sten-Åke Cederhök in the televised popular revues (buskis) Jubel i busken and Låt hjärtat va me.[1][2]

Hedenbratt's other credits as an actress include Hasse & Tage's Svenska bilder from 1964, Ingmar Bergman's Fanny and Alexander from 1982 (where she played the part of Aunt Emma),[2] and the TV production of My Mother Gets Married by Moa Martinson.[3]

Hedenbratt has been honoured with a memorial plaque at Liseberg,[2] and a street in Örgryte has been named after her.[4]
