Hilde Eisler, Date of Birth, Place of Birth, Age, Net Worth, Biography

Hilde Eisler (born Brunhilde Rothstein: 28 January 1912 – 8 October 2000) was a political activist and journalist.
In 1956 she took over as editor in chief of Das Magazin, a lifestyle and fashion magazine in the German Democratic Republic (East Germany), noteworthy according to Eisler herself when interviewed in 1988 as the first and for some years the only magazine in East Germany to feature nude pictures.Eisler is sometimes described as a German journalist of Jewish provenance.
She was born in what was, at the time, the Austro-Hungarian empire.
Because of the frontier changes mandated in 1919, as a young woman she carried not a German or Austrian passport, but a Polish one.
She did come from a Jewish family, though on account of her non-stereotypical blonde hair and blue eyes this was not immediately obvious to Gestapo officers and other government officials with whom, usually on account of her record of Communist involvement, she came into contact after the Nazi power seizure of 1933.
She spent most of 1935 in prison and escaped into exile from Germany in 1936.During the late 1940s, when she was living in the United States, her communist background (along with her acquisition by this time of a communist husband) attracted unwelcome intervention in her life from those who took their political lead from Senator McCarthy.
At the end of June 1949 she was expelled from New York and returned to Berlin.
