Katja Kessler (born January 5, 1969 in Kiel ) is a German journalist and author .
life and career
After graduating from the Kiel School of Academics , Kessler studied dentistry at the University of Kiel . After a two year break, she studied in Hamburg on and received his doctorate with the 1997 theme iron charge and antioxidant status in patients with homozygous β- thalassemia under administration of the chelator deferiprone for Dr. med. dent.
Instead of taking over her father's practice, Kessler did an internship at the Axel-Springer-Verlag and caused a sensation with her text contributions about nude pictures on the first page of the BILD newspaper . She got her own column and reported for four years on high society at home and abroad. In 2002 Kessler married the then Bild editor-in-chief and later general editor of the Bild group, Kai Diekmann . The two have four children and live in Potsdam .
Together with Dieter Bohlen, Kessler wrote his biographies Nothing but Truth (2002) and Behind the Scenes (2003). For her work, she was awarded the Champagne Prize for joie de vivre and - together with Bohlen - the Golden Pen . This prize was awarded because the book "was the first time the feature pages of well-known newspapers dealt with the phenomenon of the boulevard". Her first novel Herztöne was published in 2007, followed in 2008 by Das Mami Buch: Pregnancy, Birth and the Ten Months Afterwards , and in 2009 Ask Me Treasure, I Know Better , a novel in which she writes partly autobiographically about her marriage to Diekmann. On March 8, 2011, Kessler's laughing and non-fiction stories, Das Schatzi Experiment, or The Day on which I decided to train my husband, appeared . In 2014 she published Silicon Wahnsinn: How I once emigrated to California with Schatzi .
Kessler also appeared as "educational expert" in the RTL telecast adult on probation on.
