Born in Kattowitz as Johanna Göhrs in 1904 during the German Empire , she first attended a school in her hometown before taking her Abitur in Hanover . She then studied philosophy in Göttingen at the university there and in Munich . In 1931 she wrote her philosophical dissertation under the title The "Memoirs" around 1700. A study on the development of realistic novel art before Richardson , which came in 1933 as Volume 79 in the book trade in the series Studies on English Philology .

From 1937 the publisher lived temporarily in Hildesheim under the pseudonym Jo Györ .

Also at the time of National Socialism , Birnbaum published from 1938 under the title Morgenmond. A Munich artist novel, the first serial novella to date in the magazine Jugend .
