She made her film debut already in 1916 with the movies "Der Sekretär der Königin" (16) and "Ein tolles Mädel" (16).

(20) and "Fräulein Julie" (21).
After the movie "Sklaven des 20. Jahrhunderts" (22) she retired from the film business and devoted exclusive to the theater where she became one of the great actresses.
Her theater career took mainly place in Vienna where she was successful at the Volkstheater and at the Burgtheater.

She only made her comeback in the film business with the rise of the sound film. Her appearances kept sporadically but she occupied her few film roles always with her acting abilities.
To her well-known talkies belong "Savoy-Hotel 217" (36), "Eine Frau ohne Bedeutung" (36), "Trenck, der Pandur" (40), "Komödianten" (41) and "Der Bagnosträfling" (49).
