==Life==
Gerti Deutsch was an only child, born to Jewish parents. Her mother was from Olomouc, Moravia and her father, Bielsko-Biala, Eastern Silesia. She grew up in an apartment behind the Karlskirche in the centre of Vienna. Home-educated by a French governess as a young child and then at school in Vienna, she briefly attended an English boarding school at the age of sixteen, before entering the Wiener Musikakademie. On graduation, her goal was a career as a concert pianist, but owing to neuritis in her right arm, her recitals were not to go far beyond entertaining her parents' social gatherings. From 1933–1934, she retrained as a photographer at the Graphische Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt in Vienna.〔cf. Hopkinson, Amanda. ''Gerti Deutsch of Vienna'', page 6.

After periods spent in Paris and in London, where she thought she would be taken more seriously as a professional woman, Gerti Deutsch returned to Vienna during her father’s final illness. However, owing to the increasingly threatening climate for Jews and the more promising professional opportunities in England,〔Hopkinson, Amanda. ''Gerti Deutsch of Vienna'', page 10. In: Kurt Kaindl ''Gerti Deutsch: Photographs 1935–1965'', Salzburg: Fotohof edition, 2011. ISBN 978-3-902675-55-2.〕 she returned for good to London. In 1936, she had her first exhibition at an informal Austrian cultural association in London, forerunner of the present-day Austrian Cultural Forum,〔cf. Hopkinson, Amanda; Roeske, Nicolette. ''Introduction''. pages 5. in: ''Photographs by Gerti Deutsch''. Exhibition Catalogue produced by the Austrian Cultural Forum (ACF), London 2010〕 and in 1938 she began to work as a freelance photojournalist for the new weekly picture magazine Picture Post, founded by the Hungarian editor, Stefan Lorant. At that time, his assistant editor was Tom Hopkinson (who became editor from 1941–50), and whom she married the same year. Two daughters followed, Nicolette (married name Roeske) and Amanda (married name Caistor).
Gerti Deutsch's main body of work covers the years between 1937 and the mid-1960s, and included portraiture and travel, family photographs (Children a Speciality it said on her business card) and editorial stories as well as photo-journalism. Gerti Deutsch did not to return to visit her home city until more than two years after the War, when her father and other more distant relatives had died.〔Sabine Coelsch-Foisner.

ISBN 978-3-902675-55-2.〕 She effectively retired from professional life in 1969, when she moved from London to live in a small village outside Salzburg. She returned to England in 1975, during her final illness, to be cared for by her daughter in Royal Leamington Spa, where she died in December 1979.〔Hopkinson, Amanda.
