Annie Markart(1907-1991)

Fair-haired German supporting actress, at her peak in the mid-1930's. A builder's daughter, she was trained as a singer and ballet dancer, first performing on stage in revues and operettas. On screen from 1930, she was invariably cast in engagingly amiable roles as the 'girl next door', or employed for musical interludes. Her acting career declined after the war and she found work as an interpreter.
