Kate Steinitz               1921 - 1930

  Kate in Hanover

        Every personality of any interest eventually found his or her way into the Steinitz household for treatment, mending of clothes, pots of tea and biscuits and discussions on all of the current trends in art. A third baby girl, Beate, was born in1920 in all of the excitement of the prevailing "isms" and "ists." Kate did not allow motherhood to prevent her from being a comrade in art, a critic, and an artist in her own right with a fine reputation among her peers. A shrewd observer and a fine conversationalist, Kate managed to captivate all who visited the Steinitz household.

     Hanover no longer seemed "drab and grey with rain and fog."
