life and career

Erika Konstanze Beer, the daughter of the businessman Josef Beer and his wife Katharina Konstanzia Faltermeier, received acting lessons from Beate von Molo. She made her debut at the Kleine Komödie in Munich, played on stages in Bonn, Darmstadt, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Wiesbaden and at the Münchner Kammerspiele . As a performing artist, she was a member of the International Artist Lodge . In 1954 she was seen in stage versions of the films Ninotschka and The Blue Angel at the Schauspielhaus Zürich . Until the sixties she mostly worked in Munich theaters.

Since 1952, Erica Beer has also received numerous film roles. Again and again in German films she was the elegant seductress who occasionally confuses the main actor or other men. Her hope of a Hollywood career did not come true. The Edgar Wallace film The Red Circle showed her as a worried mother whose daughter is kidnapped, and in the TV six-part The Scarf by Francis Durbridge she played the showgirl Kim Marshall, who blackmailed publisher Clifton Morris ( Albert Lieven ), herself but gets on very well with Inspector Harry Yates ( Heinz Drache ).

Erica Beer’s son Konstantin Michael was born in 1948. In 1957 she married the Austrian screenwriter Robert Thoeren , who died on July 13 of the same year as a result of a car accident. Erica Beer herself died on December 27, 2013.
