Kathe Von Nagy

Kathe Von Nagy

Born 1904 in Szabadka, Austria-Hungary (now Subotica, Vojvodina, Yugoslavia), Kathe appeared in 56 films from 1929 to 1952. It wasn't an easy road. She wanted to get married at 16, so her parents sent her to a convent for 18 months. Upon leaving the convent she went, on her own (not common for the time), to Budapest to try her hand at writing. In Budapest she also studied acting, dancing and singing. In 1926, she went to Berlin to make movies - her first was "Men Before Marriage", directed by the man who was to become her first husband. All her films were made in either Germany or France. She died in Hollywood in 1973.
