Jennifer Nitsch (Cologne, December 10, 1966 – Munich, June 13, 2004) was a German television actress. Nitsch was the daughter of a manager and a housewife. Her parents divorced when she was two years old. She attended the Pädagogium Godesberg school with her brother. Thanks to her great-aunt, a costume mistress at the Cologne Opera, she was a passionate seamstress as a schoolgirl and trained as a costume designer after graduating from high school. As a costume designer's assistant at Westdeutscher Rundfunk, she experienced the filming of a television production and finally decided to become an actress. She trained in film and television at AC&C Studio in Munich, Zurich and New York City. Nitsch first appeared on camera in small episodic roles in the television series Forsthaus Falkenau and Der Alte. She made her film debut in 1989 as Silke in Hans W. Geißendörfer's Bumerang-Bumerang (de). Her breakthrough as a film and television actress came in 1991 when she played Anette, a crafty female flatmate, in Sönke Wortmann's comedy film Allein unter Frauen (Alone Among Women). From 1992 to 1993, she had a recurring role as Susanne Junginger in the medical and family series Freunde fürs Leben (Friends for Life). For her portrayal of the married designer Teresa Gärtner in the five-part ZDF series Nur eine kleine Affäre (Just a Little Affair), she was awarded the Bavarian TV Awards in 1994 and the Adolf Grimme Prize in 1995. She subsequently appeared in numerous other film and television productions. Nitsch loved to play emancipated, feisty women who steadfastly follow their own path. Director Dieter Wedel cast her as 'Barbara Sattler' alongside Mario Adorf, Stefan Kurt, Heiner Lauterbach and Maja Maranow in his five-part series Der Schattenmann (1996).
