One year later she got first engagements at Max Reinhardt, later followed works at the Neues Theater Frankfurt and at the Münchner Kammerspiele. She made her film debut in 1933 with "Der Judas von Tirol" and was convincing the film world of her acting ability so that she was engaged subsequently for leading roles at once.
