Sad and interesting fact, on good sources, subscription sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I have some wishes for the article, in the order of urgency:

format the bare url ref
repeat her name at the beginning of each section, for readers who come from the TOC
make the lead a summary, not the beginning, - in other words: get everything from the lead also to the body, and keep only the most important facts in the lead; ideally begin below the TOC where she was born and how educated, - if not known where she was active as what. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:43, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review! I have

Done most of the suggestions, but I cannot find place of birth in any of the sources. (t · c) buidhe 15:01, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Great, - I said "if not known" ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:30, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
