Biography[edit]

Franziska Liebing was born in Munich, Kingdom of Bavaria in South East Germany. where got her training from Austrian silent film actress Emma Berndl (1877 - 1934).

Liebing started her theatrical career in Wurzberg in 1921, then worked in Nuremberg, at the "Münchener Schauspielhaus" and at Konrad Dreher's touring theater.

Between 1928 and 1932 she had an engagement at the "Landestheater Meiningen", after that she worked at the "Reichssender" in Munich; later she was a freelancer at various theaters and Berlin guest performance companies. Liebing belonged to the ensemble of the "Schauspielhaus" in Munich from 1925 to 1930 and appeared on stage at the "Meiningen Theater" in 1931/32. After a few years without an engagement, she was under contract in Berlin with Gustav Bartelmus, Richard Handwerk and Bernd Königsfeld.

Since the 1950s, she devoted herself extensively to German film and television, where she often played smart, hands-on, but also curious neighbors and landladies, for example in the series "Funkstreife Isar 12", in "Die seltsamen Methoden des Franz Josef Wanninger" and in 1979, directed by Kurt Wilhelm, in the film version of Ludwig Thomas' peasant novel "Der Ruepp".
