Ingeborg "Inge" von Wangenheim (née Franke; 1 July 1912 – 6 April 1993)[1] was a German actress[2] who married actor Gustav Von Wangenheim[3] and joined the Communist Party. After the war, she became a successful East German writer.[2][4][5]
She also had a talent for photography: she left an intriguing photographic archive from the years she spent living in Moscow during the 1930s and 40s.[6] The archive is the more remarkable because it concerns a time and places where, for both economic and political reasons, very few people would have had access to photographic equipment.
