Biography
Trude Dothan was born in 1922 in Vienna, from where her parents emigrated to Mandatory Palestine the very next year. Her parents were both born in Vienna and, once in Jerusalem, they joined the local community of intellectuals and artists, many of them German speakers. Her father, Leopold Krakauer (1890-1954), was an artist and architect who designed several Bauhaus-style buildings for Jerusalem's "garden city" of Rehavia; her mother Grete (née Wolf, 1890-1970) was a painter.
In 1951 she married Moshe Dothan (1919–1999), a fellow archaeologist with whom she shared interest in biblical archaeology and particularly the Philistine culture. They had two children together. She died on 28 January 2016, aged 93.
