Timeline

1987

A 1987 film by Rosa von Praunheim titled Anita - Tänze des Lasters centers around the life of Anita Berber.

1928

According to Mel Gordon, in The Seven Addictions and Five Professions of Anita Berber: Weimar Berlin's Priestess of Debauchery, she was diagnosed with severe tuberculosis while performing abroad. After collapsing in Damascus, she returned to Germany and died in a Kreuzberg hospital on 10 November 1928. She was buried in a pauper's grave in St. Thomas Cemetery in Neukölln.

1925

Captured in a 1925 painting by Otto Dix, wearing a tomato-red "Morphine" costume, on exhibit at the 2006-07 "Glitter and Doom: German Portraits from the 1920s" show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

1922

Her second marriage-in 1922-was to Sebastian Droste. This lasted until 1923. In 1925, she married a gay American dancer named Henri Chatin-Hofmann.

1920

Her dancer friend and sometime lover Sebastian Droste, who performed in the film Algol (1920), was skinny and had black hair with gelled up curls much like sideburns. Neither of them wore much more than low slung loincloths and Anita occasionally a corsage worn well below her small breasts.

1919

She was an actress, known for Around the World in 80 Days (1919), The Story of Dida Ibsen (1918) and Eerie Tales (1919). She was married to Henri Châtin Hofmann, Sebastian Droste and Eberhard von Nathusius.

1918

By 1918 she was working in film, and she began dancing nude in 1919. Scandalously androgynous, she quickly made a name for herself. She wore heavy dancer's make-up, which on the black-and-white photos and films of the time came across as Jet Black lipstick painted across the heart-shaped part of her skinny lips, and charcoaled eyes.

1915

German exotic dancer, cabaret artiste and actress, the daughter of a violin virtuoso. She studied acting under Maria Moissi (1915) and dancing under Rita Sacchetto. Berber began on stage in Berlin in 1917 and quickly made headlines, as much for being the first sexually explicit nude dancer of the silent screen, as for her dissolute and scandal-ridden private life. Addicted to alcohol and cocaine, she died aged 29 of consumption.

1899

Anita Berber was born on June 10, 1899 in Dresden, Germany.
