Rahel Marcus (1894-1942) was born in Lodz, Poland. After studying at the Art Academy of Munich she married the Jewish actor, Julius Szalit. Gravitating to Berlin, she became a member of the November group - young avant-garde artists who coalesced after the November Revolution of 1918. Her life ended after she was deported from France and killed in a Nazi concentration camp. See EJ, Vol. XV, col. 656
