Life
Ursula Haucke grew up in Berlin. Her father was a lawyer. She had a brother who was five years her junior, Gert Haucke . The family was wealthy and lived in a spacious apartment with ten rooms on Kurfürstendamm . During the Second World War, the father was a judicial councilor in France. The Berlin apartment was destroyed in the war. The family then lived in Templin from 1943 to 1947 , where Ursula Haucke temporarily worked as the secretary of the district office manager in Heindorf. Because of alleged incitement to hatred against the Nazi regime, as her colleagues had denounced, she was transferred to a sentence and got a job as a cleaning lady in a children's home. Without the help of her father, who was on home leave during the allegations against his daughter, she would likely have been sentenced to prison.
In Berlin, Haucke began working as a writer for the radio station RIAS . There she produced individual contributions and the series “Education tips - musically packed”, which was broadcast over a period of 15 minutes with great success for twenty years. In the 1950s, Haucke also became a playwright. Her play "Bread Rolls and Tea", in which her brother Gert played the lead role, was performed very successfully at the Komödie am Kurfürstendamm .
Haucke wrote 240 episodes for the radio play series "Papa, Charly said", which was produced and broadcast by several ARD broadcasters from 1972 onwards. The radio play series was about speeches between father and son on contemporary political issues. Gert Haucke played the father, who is repeatedly brought into need of explanation by precocious or provocative questions from his son.
Ursula Haucke wrote scripts for the second season of the TV series “ The Monday Family ”, which was shown on ARD in 1987 . Her brother Gert Haucke played the father. Her very successful boulevard play "Breakfast at Kellermanns", staged on many stages, became a television film in 2007.
Ursula Haucke has published several books that deal with relationships between children and adults, for example “There is always something going on with grandma: Grandmothers today” (2009). Haucke was married; she had two daughters and two grandchildren. She died on November 14, 2014 at the age of 90.
