Born in in Magdeburg, Germany as Margarete Schippang, she received private acting lessons with the theatre actor Hans Calm in Dessau. In 1912 she made ¿¿her stage debut in Bad Freienwalde. Shortly thereafter, she received a commitment at the municipal theater of Bromberg (now, Bydgoszcz, in present-day Poland). From 1915 to 1918 she was part of the ensemble cast of the Deutsches Theater in Hannover, and from 1918 to 1945 she performed at the Staatstheater Berlin.
