After an apprenticeship as a shoe seller, the young woman left her hometown Ulm at the age of nineteen in 1963 and emigrated to the United States. With the help of a Frankfurt agency, she found her first job in New York as a cook in the household of the Greek ship magnate Gregory Callimanopulos - without having completed any relevant training . Then she worked - also as a cook - for the show business impresario Billy Rose . After his death in 1964, she successfully applied for the position of head chef for Jackie Kennedy , who had moved from Washington, DC to New York after the assassination of her husband, US President John F.
