Life and career

Born in Vienna on 13 October 1938,[2] Hörbiger was the second of the three actress daughters of Austrian actors Attila Hörbiger (1896–1987) and Paula Wessely (1907–2000).[1][3] Her sisters were Шаблон:Ill and Шаблон:Ill. She was the aunt of German actor Christian Tramitz.[1]

As her mother wished, she first trained to be a pastry maker (Zuckerbäcker),[3] and her parents bought her a Konditorei.[1] She decided in 1955 to pursue an acting career, and attended the Max Reinhardt Seminar, but dropped out the same year to play Mary Vetsera in the film Kronprinz Rudolfs letzte Liebe. She first appeared at the Burgtheater in Vienna as Recha in Lessing's Nathan der Weise in 1959, but reviews were scathing.[3][4] She moved to the Theater Heidelberg[3] for two years.[5] She played at the Salzburg Festival, together with her mother for the first time, as Lottchen in Raimund's Шаблон:Ill in 1961. When she returned to the Burgtheater, again as Recha, she was successful.[3][4]

Hörbiger played roles in various German and Austrian television films and series, beginning in the mid-1980s playing the lead role of Countess Christine von Guldenburgin in the series Das Erbe der Guldenburgs, alongside Brigitte Horney, Ruth Maria Kubitschek, and Stewart Granger.

In film, she was successful as Freya von Hepp in Helmut Dietl's 1992 satire Schtonk! about forged Hitler diaries, as well as in Шаблон:Ill, Шаблон:Ill (1997) and Шаблон:Ill.[3] She portrayed the revengeful Claire Zachanassian in Шаблон:Ill's 2008 television film based on Dürrenmatt's Der Besuch der alten Dame.
