About this person
As a Jew, fearing the rise of Nazism, she emigrated to Argentina in 1938 where she soon became a star of the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires and acquired Argentine citizenship. She is remembered in particular for her Wagnerian roles, including Ortrud in Lohengrin, Erda and Waltraute in the Ring Cycle and Magdalene in the Meistersinger. In the 1940s, she also performed in Chile and Uruguay. She returned to Austria in 1949 where she appeared in a recital in Innsbrück and taught voice in Vienna.
