Based in Berlin since June 1921, the artist worked at the Residenz Theater and the Trianon Theater, among others . Since then she has sporadically appeared in front of the camera in supporting roles.

Under his direction and at his side she could be seen in the summer of 1925 in the Schwank Madame Bonivard .
