During the Nazi period she remained in Germany but appears not to have been politically active. After the war she was an early member of the new Socialist Unity Party (Sozialistische Einheitspartei Deutschlands / SED) which after 1949 became the ruling party of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany), but never took on any position of influence within the party.
