Hanna Deinhard

Hanna Deinhard (born Johanna Levy; 28 September 1912 − 14 July 1984) was a German-Brazilian-US art historian.

She attended the "Oberlyzeum für höhere Töchter" in Osnabrück and studied art history, philosophy and German in Munich from 1932.

After the seizure of control in 1933, she travelled to Paris on a student trip and, as she was not allowed to continue her studies in Germany because of the discrimination against Jews, then enrolled at the Sorbonne.

In 1948, Hanna Deinhard received a position as a lecturer at the New School for Social Research in New York.

Since 2021, the Art History Department of the University of Basel awards once a year the Hanna Levy-Deinhard Prize for particularly outstanding theses.
