Genre
Biographies & Memoirs, Historical Fiction, Children's Books


I was born in Diepholz, Germany, in 1946.

Twenty years I worked as a teacher of art, German language and literature and wrote lesson units and texts for a large textbook publisher.

My first novel for young people was published in 2000, followed by three novels for children and young adults, as well as a long narrative for an anthology of world religions. My books have been translated into several languages and my novel "Over a thousand hills I walk with you" about the genocide in Rwanda received an important German children's book prize, the Buxtehuder Bulle. It is now published in the United States.

I live with my husband and twelve children from all over the world - most of them African orphans - in Siegburg near Cologne. ...more
