life and career
From 1930 to 1933 Elisabeth Scherer attended the Cologne Drama School and the Mary Wigman School.
Initially successful at the theater, Scherer was one of the most famous faces of her age on German television in the later phase of her career. Mostly she plays rough, sometimes vulgar, mostly frivolous older women and thus ensures entertaining short appearances. For her role as Lilli in Til Schweiger's Jetzt oder nie - Zeit ist Geld (with Corinna Harfouch , Martin Semmelrogge , Ingrid von Bothmer and Til Schweiger), she and her film partners Christel Peters (Meta) and Gudrun Okras (Carla) won the 2000 Ernst Lubitsch Prize awarded.
She also appeared in several radio plays, for example in 1951, directed by Eduard Hermann as Steve Temple in the Paul Temple multi-part series Paul Temple and the Curzon case by Francis Durbridge . Her partners included René Deltgen , Herbert Hennies , Kurt Lieck , Heinz von Cleve and Peter René Körner .
Elisabeth Scherer was married three times (including René Deltgen) and had five children as well as seven grandchildren and one great-grandson. The son Matthias Deltgen became an actor like his parents, as did their son Daniel Werner .
Elisabeth Scherer died at the age of 98 in her Cologne apartment. Her urn was buried in the Melaten cemetery (hall 16 (A)).
