Biography
Magda Schneider was a German singer and actress who worked in theater and film. She was born in Augsburg in 1909. After finishing her education at a monastery school, she studied office management and stenography at a business school, while also taking ballet and art classes at the Augsburg School of Music. Her stage debut came six months later as a soubrette at Munich's Gärtnerplatz-Theater. Ernst Marischka discovered her and offered her a role at Vienna's Theater an der Wien. She first appeared on screen in Boycott (1930). She was often cast as an ordinary young woman hoping for happiness, in films like Two in a Car (1932) and Ein Mädel wirbelt durch die Welt (1934). After World War II, she returned to stage and screen. In the 1950s, she played mother or aunt roles in films including When the White Lilacs Bloom Again (1953) and Sissi (1955). She died in 1996.
