About this person
Ina Seidel was a German lyric poet and novelist. In 1930, she published the novel generally regarded as her most famous work, Das Wunschkind ("The Wished-For Child"); two years later she became the first woman admitted to the Prussian Academy of Arts. Her reputation has been shadowed by her enthusiastic support of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. In 1933 she was one of 88 artists to swear the Vow of Total Loyalty to Hitler. Seidel provided a celebratory poem on the occasion of the Führer's birthday in 1939 and was personally named in Joseph Goebbels' 1944 God-Graced List of artists considered crucial to German culture. She has maintained some relevance in German popular culture despite a dramatic post-1945 decline in popularity.
