Klara Behrend (born April 30, 1877 in Breslau , † after 1921) was a German writer . She also wrote under the pseudonyms Klara Baumbach and Klara Baumbach-Holle .

Life

Behrend was born as the daughter of a merchant in Breslau. She attended the secondary school for girls in Breslau until 1893 , where she began to be interested in writing and acting. However, her parents forbade her to become an actress. She therefore only appeared occasionally at charity events as a reciter and amateur actress.

In 1902, Behrend's debut novel How Women Love appeared , in which she showed herself “as a realist, without, however, walking the path of the super-modern”. She also wrote for various magazines, including Die Zukunft . From 1915 to 1921 she was the editor of the National Women's Papers . She last lived in Munich -Solln.
