Hertha Natzler
Hertha left Australia in 1945 and seems to have settled with her sisters and mother in Los Angeles. Although Grete's film career was flagging, the career of her husband, Franz Steininger (1906-1974), took off. Steininger was the godson of Franz Lehár and worked in Hollywood as a film music composer and orchestra leader and conductor. Lizzi had married Manuel Tortosa, and became better known in Los Angeles as Litzie Maria Tortosa.
