Life

Anton was born the daughter of an Austrian military officer. After violent arguments with her family, she went to a theater as an actress in 1878. Four years later, despite her success, she ended her stage career because in 1882 she married the editor-in-chief of the "Ostpreußische Zeitung" Paul Anton (* 1857). He was a comedian and Anton started to write too. In 1881 she had already published a volume of poetry under the title From Heart to Heart . From 1887 the couple lived in Königsberg in Prussia.
