Annemarie Wendl (26 December 1914, Trostberg, Upper Bavaria, Bavaria – 3 September 2006, Munich, Bavaria, Germany) was a German actress.Wendl was born into an upper-class family in Bavaria and began her training as an actress in Berlin at Lucie Höflich's seminar. Afterwards, she played classical roles on stage in Berlin, Bonn, Augsburg, Innsbruck, Munich, Bamberg and Ingolstadt. In her youth, she played "all sentimental characters", such as Faust's Gretchen and Emilia Galotti. Later she played character roles, such as Adelheid in Götz von Berlichingen, Blanche in A Streetcar Named Desire, Maria Stuart in the play by Schiller and the title role in Brecht's Mother Courage. Her last theatrical works were The Widow in the Green Tree (1997) and Sanssouci in 2001.Wendl began working in film in 1961 and made more than 35 films and TV productions. During her long career on the big screen, Wendl was seen in both soft-porn movies (Graf Porno), as well as some movies of Rainer Werner Fassbinder (1976's Ich will doch nur, daß ihr mich liebt/I Only Want You to Love Me). Her television work includes series like Die Fünfte Kolonne, Meister Eder und sein Pumuckl and Der Komissar, where she made guest appearances in a few episodes.Wendl was best known for her role as "Else Kling" in the German weekly soap Lindenstraße, which started in December 1985. She appeared in the first episode Herzlich Willkommen and remained in the series' cast until May 2006. Her character, Else Kling, lost her husband, Egon Kling, in a car accident in Paris, France in 1998. In the episode "Abschied und Ankunft" (#1069), Else Kling died. She played Else Kling for such a long time that she became one of Germany's most popular TV actresses. She was called "the nation's caretaker" or also "the nation's worst blabbermouth" (due to her character's habit of unceasingly spreading gossip). She also appeared in some commercials depicting Else Kling and sang rap songs. She published two CDs, Du Depp in 1993 and Else Goes Dance in 1995. Else Kling was often compared to J.R. Ewing.Privately, Wendl worked with young people and liked to wear fashionable clothes. On the Lindenstraße homepage her birthday was initially given as December 26, 1922 or 1921 until she turned 90 in 2004. An official rectification was published, revealing that Wendl was eight years older than her character (Else Kling was born on May 14, 1922, and died on May 25, 2006 at the age of 84).In 2005, Wendl suffered a stroke and had three bouts of pneumonia, which caused her to cease work on Lindenstraße. After her character's death, Wendl received coverage in the yellow press quite regularly, most notably about her health. In an interview in June 2006, Wendl said that she did not yet want to die.Wendl, who was married to Siegmar Kleinschmidt from 1942 until his death in 1944, lived in Munich and is survived by her son.
