Mary Hagen

Born in Diez, Hagenwar was a student of Etelka Gerster, Conrad Muschler and Selma Nicklass-Kempner.

First performances were booked in 1896 at the Wilhelm Theatre in Magdeburg, engagements in Kiel, Aachen and Görlitz followed.

During this time, she devoted herself more to operetta and in 1898 she appeared at the Central-Theater (Berlin) [de].

Her change to the field of highly dramatic soprano for corresponding Wagner roles was not very successful.

Hagen is documented as an actress in the film Zigeunerblut by Urban Gad from 1911 in the role of Baroness Leonie Korff.
