Emerenz Meier

In the autumn of 1896, her first and only book, From the Bavarian Forest, was released in the East Prussian Königsberg.

Because of the poor economic situation parts of the family emigrated to North America.

The First World War intensified her criticism of the political, economic and social conditions in Europe and America.

Emerenz Meier died on February 28, 1928, in Chicago at the age of 53 years of complications from nephritis.

Her stories and poems were published in magazines such as Simplicissimus and Fliegende Blätter.
