Married W.H. Auden to obtain a British passport so she wouldn't have to
return to Nazi Germany. She then went to the United States.
Her first trip back to Europe was with her father in 1945/6.
In 1933, she founded an anti-Fascist cabaret called "Die Pfeffermühle"
(The Peppermill) in Munich, but had to leave Germany some months later.
It opened in Zurich again and became a rallying point for exiles.
Played by Sophie Rois on "Manns - Ein Jahrhundertroman, Die" (2001) (mini)_
