Ursula was born on April 27, 1935. She is a well-known actress and her nickname is "The Hinrichs."[1] She is also known as "the Grand Dame of Theater."[2] In the 1990s and 2000s, Hinrichs also appeared regularly on television outside of Ohnsorg recordings. In the successful children's series Neues vom Süderhof (1991-1997) and Die Kinder vom Alstertal (1998-2004), for example, she was among the main cast in the role of the lovable grandmother. In 1993, she appeared in the miniseries Der große Bellheim as Emma, the housekeeper of Bellheim, played by Mario Adorf. In addition, she has been active since 1956 as a narrator of Low German radio plays and texts, such as since 2011 as Oma Hertha in the NDR radio series Düsse Petersens.[3] In recent years, Hinrichs has been doing more frequent Low German readings in northern Germany.[4]
