Anna Wattenberg's friend. She spent most of her time in the Watenberg family's flat at Sienna Street No. 41 (July 1941). In autumn 1941, she was very ill with typhus. She came to say goodbye to Anna and Mary before they were interned in Pawiak. The girls took a memorial photo together. She sent the Wattenbergs letters to Pawiak. Her father was a senior supervisor in Aschman's shop. She miraculously evaded the deportation; during a selection of workers of the shop, she volunteered to go to trains, to accompany her mother (Brandt unexpectedly released them both). She worked in the Werterfassung. On 1 December 1942, she managed to talk to Mary through a prison window. On 17 April 1943, her parents sent her from the ghetto to the 'Aryan side.' She wrote the Wattenbergs letters to Vittel.
