Background notes

Archive material and source history

Marlene Dietrich was born in Germany in 1901. She first gained attention in the Weimar Republic's cabaret scene, then landed a breakthrough role in the 1930 film "The Blue Angel." Her distinctive voice and style set her apart from the start.

She recorded "Lili Marleen" in 1939. Originally intended for German soldiers, the song became popular on both sides of World War II. Her version of the ballad, along with songs like "Ich Bin Von Kopf Bis Fuß" and "Sag Mir Wo Die Blumen Sind," defined much of her musical output.

During the war, Dietrich became a U.S. citizen and toured to entertain Allied troops. She continued performing after the war, releasing albums and appearing in films while maintaining her status as a cultural figure.
