Biography

She was daughter of a Hessian officer and was educated in Berlin. In 1880, she married Captain Franz Knobelsdorff-Brenkenhoff, and after some travel lived at Schwerin. She started writing short stories and plays early in her life. Of these plays, Karl Augusts Brautfahrt and Die Sturmnixe found their way to the stage. Her rapidly sketched novels and stories soon gained popularity and some reached several editions.
