Inge Keller (15 December 1923 – 6 February 2017) was a German stage and film actress whose career on stage and screen spanned seventy years. She was one of the most prominent performers in the former German Democratic Republic.[1] Thomas Langhoff described her as "perhaps the most famous actress of the German Democratic Republic—a star."[2] Deutschlandradio Kultur reporter Dieter Kranz called her "a theater legend".[3]
Internationally, Keller was known for her portrayal of the older Lilly Wust in the Golden Globe nominated Aimée & Jaguar. She won the Award for the Best Supporting Actress in the 36th International Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival for her participation in the film Lola and Billy the Kid.[4]
In 2006, Keller received the Order of Merit of Berlin from Mayor Klaus Wowereit.[5]
