Berliner appeared in a number of well known movies in Germany during the 1930s, including Masken, The Invisible Front, Großstadtnacht [de] and Kaiserwalzer.
Later that year, she had another bit part in the World War II romance Reunion in France, and in 1943 she played Frau Reitler in The Strange Death of Adolf Hitler.
Her last American movie was a small uncredited role as a German actress in the musical The Dolly Sisters in 1945, again appearing with S.Z.
Berliner lived quietly in California until she died on February 26, 1977, in San Diego, just two days shy of her 74th birthday.
