Uschi Obermaier

Ursula "Uschi" Obermaier (German pronunciation: [ˈʊʃi ˈʔoːbɐˌmaɪɐ] ⓘ; born 24 September 1946) is a former fashion model and actress associated with the 1968 left-wing movement in Germany.

After a successful photo-shoot with photographer Guido Mangold [de] in Cameroon, she became its top model and internationally famous.

[3] Kommune 1 was the first politically motivated commune in Germany, and Obermaier's name is most intimately connected with the 1960s student rebellions in the minds of many Germans.

In 1973, Obermaier fell in love with Dieter Bockhorn [de], the wealthy owner of a club in Hamburg's Reeperbahn red-light district.

Obermaier went on The Rolling Stones' Tour of the Americas '75 and is said to have had affairs with both Keith Richards and Mick Jagger,[5] as well as with Jimi Hendrix – a visitor to Kommune 1 – with whom she can be seen kissing and cuddling farewell outside the West Berlin hotel Kempinski in the movie Last Experience.

She also played a small role alongside Rainer Langhans in Haytabo, and portrayed Marlene in the film adaptation of the novel Blutrausch.

This biography was adapted into a biographical film, Eight Miles High (original German title: Das wilde Leben).
