Amalie Haizinger, or Neumann-Haizinger, née Morstadt (6 May 1800 Karlsruhe - 10 August 1884 Vienna) was a German actress.
Life
[edit | edit source]Haizinger debuted in 1810 at the Karlsruhe Theater. In 1816, she married actor Carl Neumann. Her talent for profitably performing stage plays developed very rapidly. She found enthusiastic applause on tours as far as Paris, London and St. Petersburg.
After the death of her first husband, she married singer Anton Haizinger in 1827 and worked with him in Karlsruhe. There she concentrated on comedy projects. In 1836, a book was published about her.[1] In 1846, she participated in an engagement at the Burgtheater in Vienna, where she worked in the stock "funny old lady" role until her death on 10 August 1884.
To celebrate Haizinger's 50th birthday, Johann Baptist Reiter painted a portrait of her that hangs today in the Schlossmuseum Linz.
Family
[edit | edit source]With her first husband, Haizinger had two children, Adolphine Neumann and Luise Neumann, who both became notable actresses.
Awards
[edit | edit source]Haizingergasse, a street in Vienna 18 (Währing), is named after the actress, as well as a high school on that street.
