Life

Helga Schlack received ballet lessons from Tatjana Gsovsky and made her first appearances as a dancer before taking acting lessons from Else Bongers in her hometown of Berlin . Engagements at Berlin theaters as well as in Zurich and Vienna followed.

She was discovered for film when she was 21. In supporting supporting roles, rarely leading roles, Helga Schlack played mostly young, neat and friendly young women of today in pure entertainment films; These tasks were almost never an artistic challenge. One of the most memorable are three Jerry Cotton crime stories from 1965/66, where she played Helen, the assistant to FBI chief Mr. High ( Richard Münch ).

In 1966, Helga Schlack married the actor Peer Schmidt , with whom she had already stood in front of the camera in the films Ms. Irene Besser and Comrade Münchhausen at the beginning of the 1960s . This marriage lasted until his death in 2010 and was considered extremely happy in acting circles. From then on, the Schmidt-Schlack couple often stood together on stage, in Berlin as well as on guest tours or in Frankfurt am Main , where both appeared in the comedy in the 1980s . After her marriage to Schmidt, Helga Schlack largely ended her film career and has only been seen sporadically in television productions since then.
