Lotte Jacobi - biography

Lotte Jacobi came from a family of photographers and studied film and photography in Munich from 1925 to 1927, later taking over the management of her father’s studio in Berlin. Here she created many portraits of celebrities, actors, artists and authors, often under pseudonyms. In 1935 she was forced to flee from the National Socialist regime due to her Jewish heritage, and settled in the US, where she made a living taking wedding and family photos. Here she met numerous intellectuals and artists who like her had also immigrated to America, including Albert Einstein and Thomas Mann, who she later portrayed.
