- She grew up in poor circumstances. At the outbreak of the First World War, she moved to Germany with her mother and Lea, her sister, where they settled in Frankfurt am Main. In 1916 the family moved to Marburg. In 1918 they moved on to Berlin, where she spent her school years living in Spandau. In 1922 her parents married, whereupon she was adopted by her father and took the name Engel. In 1925 she worked as a trainee in the workers' welfare administration of the Jewish organizations in Germany. Meanwhile, she attended evening courses in philosophy and psychology at the Lessing University and the Humboldt University in Berlin. On July 31, 1928, she married the Hebrew teacher Saul Aaron Kaléko. Towards the end of the 1920s, Mascha Kaléko came into contact with Berlin's artistic avant-garde. She met Else Lasker-Schuler, Erich Kästner, Kurt Tucholsky and Joachim Ringelnatz.
In 1929, Mascha Kaléko published her first newspaper poems in the newspaper "Querschnitt". In 1930, poems were published in the "Vossische Zeitung" and the "Berliner Tagblatt". In 1933 Rowohlt published "The lyrical shorthand booklet". This received rave reviews and was a sales success. In May 1933, her volume of poetry was burned by the Nazis after it was discovered that she was Jewish. In 1934, Rowohlt printed her "Little Reading Book for Grown-Ups" and in 1935 a new edition of the first novel. Meanwhile, Saul Aaron Kaléko was divorced. Around 1937 she married the conductor and musicologist Chemjo Vinaver. She emigrated to the USA with him and their son Evjatar in 1938. The loss of her homeland and mother tongue hit her hard. The following poems were strongly influenced by this grief. Her work as an advertising copywriter and children's book author secured the family's meager income during this time.
On December 6, 1945, she took part in the New York Progressive Literary Club, an initiative founded by Heinrich Eduard Jacob to cultivate German literature in exile in memory of deceased poets. Shortly afterwards she returned to Germany, where she soon found widespread recognition as a poet. Heinrich Maria Ledig-Rowohlt successfully published "The Lyric Shorthand Notebook. Verses from Everyday Life" in 1956. In 1960 she was awarded the Fontane Prize, which she publicly rejected because the jury included a former SS member. Following her husband's wishes, Mascha Kaléko emigrated to Israel in 1966. Here she suffered again from the loss of cultural identity and the resulting isolation. In 1968 her son died in New York.
In 1973, Vinaver died. Despite these blows of fate, she found the strength to write again. In 1971 and 1973 she published the works "How things are on the moon" and "Everything has its two dark sides". In 1974, with the desire to return to her old home of Berlin, new courage to live arose.
Mascha Kaléko died of stomach cancer on January 21, 1975 in Zurich. - Wellington Cross was born on 3 April 1887 in Boston, Massachusetts, USA. He was an actor, known for The Grey Parasol (1918). He was married to Catherine Green. He died on 12 October 1975 in New York City, New York, USA.
