Käthe Kongsbak
Käthe Kongsbak , also Käte Kongsbak-König (born December 19, 1895 in Altona ; died September 1, 1975 in Hamburg ) was a German writer, publicist and copywriter.
Life
Käthe Kongsbak was the daughter of the ship's carpenter Heinrich Kongsbak and Henriette Hinz. In 1927 she published poems and articles in the short-lived magazine Harpune - monthly journal for cultural radicalism - edited by Heinrich Laufenberg . Kongsbak married Garlef Franz Friedrich König's second marriage in 1935 and called himself Kongsbak-König from then on.
After 1945 she set hit texts by Peppi Wetzel , Franz Josef Breuer , Willi Linow and Raymund Müller-Marc . She also wrote under the pseudonym Klaus Triberg. The writings from Germany's hard times (1914) and sketches and novellas of a woman in the great wartime (1916 ) listed by Förster (2013) are probably not by Kongsbak, according to research by the family.
