About The Author
In 1911, Luise Rinser was born in a small town in Oberbayern (southern part of
Bavaria) and there attended the "Gymnasium." After her graduation, she studied
Psychology and Pedagogy. After 1935, she worked as an elementary school teacher,
from which she resigned, because she didn't want to work for the NSDAP party. In
1941, she published her first work, entitled "Die glasernen Ringe," upon which
she was imprisoned. In 1944 she was sentenced to death for high treason and
military demoralization. However, the sentence couldn't be carried out due to
the liberation by the Americans.
From 1945-1953, she worked for the "Neue Zeitung" in Munich and published books,
such as "Mitte des Lebens" and "Daniela." In the following years, she published
works, such as "Die vollkommene Freude," "Mirjam," "Abaelards Liebe," and "Bruder
Esel."
In 1977, Luise Rinser received the "Bundesverdienstkreuz," a distinguished
service medal, and in 1984, she was nominated by the party "Die Grunen" for the
President of the Federal Republic against Richard von Weizsacker.
