Uta Bresan was born in Dresden, slightly more than 15 years after the launch of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany).[1][3] While still at school she undertook four years of training in classical singing at Dresden's "Musikschule Paul Büttner" ("Paul Büttner Music Academy").[4] After successful completion of her school career she remained in Dresden in order to study dance and popular music between 1984 and 1988 at the Carl Maria von Weber Music Academy, at the end of which she passed the exams necessary for a performing career with a "Level I" qualification.[3] She immediately launched herself as a stage singer, appearing with various bands.[5]
In 1993 the Leipzig-based MDR television broadcaster engaged her to present Tierisch tierisch, a weekly programme concerning domestic pets. The first 25 minute episode in what has become a very long series was broadcast on 4 January 1994.[8] She is still hosting the programme as its regular presenter in 2021.[9]
Since 18 January 2004, when she took over the job from Carmen Nebel, Bresan has also moderated television's Saxony-themed music-request show Musik für Sie.[10]
