Life

Doris Krüger began her acting career in 1932 on a traveling theater in Berlin. Further engagements at touring theaters followed, but she also performed at regular venues such as the Rose Theater and, since the beginning of the Second World War, at the Kammerspiele of the German Theater . Krüger played, as it was said in an obituary, “high-spirited peasant girls, mischievous servants and all the solid, life-wise creatures of Shakespeare, Molière, Calderon and Goethe”. One of her best-known roles was Eve Rull in Heinrich von Kleist's Der zerbrochne Krug .

In 1938/39 Doris Krüger received smaller film roles in four movies. From 1942 until her untimely death, the artist was married to the acting veteran Otto Fee , 36 years her senior . Krüger died, just 36 years old, “of a serious ailment”, as the obituary of the Deutscher Bühnen-Jahrbuch put it nebulously.
