Karin Hübner (pronounced [ˈkaːʁiːn ˈhyːbnɐ] ⓘ; 16 September 1936 – 25 July 2006) was a German stage, film, and television actress.

Hübner was born in Gera in Thuringia and grew up in Michendorf, near Berlin (in East Germany after 1945).

She starred in the German-language premiere of the musical, in 1961, at the Theater des Westens (Theatre of the West) in Berlin.

[1] Hübner never regained the heights of her fame and success as Eliza Doolittle, although she remained a sought-after stage and film star and played many other roles.

Hübner was married three times – to film director Peter Beauvais (with whom she had a daughter, Dana Beauvais),[4] actor Günter Pfitzmann, and musician Frank Duval – and was at times personally troubled (she set fire to her apartment in 1982 in a drunken suicide attempt, and was sentenced to six months in prison for arson).
