Sunday Stamps | K Is for Kirchbach & Knef

Esther von Kirchbach (1894 – 1946) was a German journalist, poet and chaplain of the Confessing Church.

Hildegard Knef (1925 – 2002) was a German actress, singer, and writer. Her two best-known film roles were in Die Mörder sind unter uns ('The Murderers Are Among Us'), produced in 1946  and the first film released after the Second World War in East Germany; and in Die Sünderin ('The Sinner'), in which she performed a brief nude scene, the first in German film history, which caused a scandal in 1951.
