Biography
Indrek Saar is an Estonian actor and politician born February 20, 1973. He trained at the Estonian Academy of Music and Higher Drama in Tallinn and worked as an actor and director at Rakvere Theatre from 1996 to 2005, then served as chief executive officer at NO99 theatre from 2006 to 2007. For two decades, from 1995 to 2015, he played Raim Raidver on the long-running ETV television drama series Õnne 13, one of Estonia's most recognizable roles. Saar entered national politics after Villu Reiljan, then leader of the People's Union of Estonia, suggested that artists remain in their craft—a comment made in response to cultural figures endorsing Toomas Hendrik Ilves for President in 2006. He was elected to the Riigikogu in 2007, 2011, 2015, and 2019, serving as a member until 2023. As Minister of Culture from 2015 to 2019, he presided over major wage increases for state-employed culture, arts, and sports professionals and led negotiations over the Audiovisual Media Services Directive in the Council of the European Union. From 2019 to 2022, he led the Social Democratic Party. Throughout his parliamentary tenure, Saar served on the constitutional committee, legal affairs committee, and European Union affairs committee, and represented Estonia at the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, where he chaired the national delegation and participated in election monitoring across Moldova, Albania, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Montenegro, Serbia, Ukraine, and Russia. A Pisces with life-path number 6, Saar embodies the archetypal bridge-builder between creative and civic life [F1, birth].
