Life
Alb Dreh was born as Franc Albrecht. He grew up in a liberal milieu, but later came to more leftist views. He studied at the University of Vienna and became a neo-romantic poet.
In the late 1920s and early 1930s Albendet was editor of the renowned literary magazine Ljubljanski ZVON . After the crisis of the magazine in 1932, which resulted from different interpretations of the Slovenian identity and attitudes towards the centralist politics in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia , Alb nearly left the magazine and founded a new magazine called Sodobnost (“Modernism” together with the literary critic Josip Vidmar and the author Ferdo Kozak) ").
After the attack on Yugoslavia in April 1941 , Alb nearly became an active member of the Liberation Front of the Slovenian people in Ljubljana. He was arrested by the Italian fascist authorities after a series of actions. In 1944 the German authorities sent him to the Dachau concentration camp .
In 1945, after liberation from Nazi occupation, he was appointed mayor of Ljubljana . He served in this office between 1945 and 1948. He was dismissed in 1948 and shortly thereafter imprisoned for anti-communist activities.
He was married to the poet Vera Albendet . He is buried in the Zale cemetery.
