Grete Berger (born Margarethe Berg; 11 February 1883 – 23 May 1944)[1] was an Austrian-German stage and film actress whose career came to an end following the rise of the Nazi Party in 1933.

In 1904 she began an engagement at the Deutsches Theater under theatre director and pedagogue Max Reinhardt where she performed in youthful character roles.

Other notable roles in Berlin included Puck in Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, the title role of Hugo von Hofmannsthal's drama Elektra, Désirée in Richard Beer-Hofmann's The Count of Charolais, Marikke in Hermann Sudermann's Johannisfeuer, and Rahel in Franz Grillparzer's The Jewess of Toledo.

[2] She later fled with her husband to Italy, where she was arrested by the German occupation authorities in the course of a general hunt for Jews on 7 April 1944 in San Donato Val di Comino, near Rome.

From Fossoli, the German occupying forces deported both actors on 16 May 1944 to the Auschwitz concentration camp, where Berger and Feldhammer were murdered shortly after their arrival on 23 May 1944.
