Herti Bryan

HERTI BRYAN was born in Graz, Austria in 1929. Her happy childhood was marred by the rise of the Third Reich and the oppression of the Nazi occupation of her country and, later, by Russian forces. A committed ‘anglophile’, Herti used her initiative to thwart the Nazi war effort, eventually becoming an interpreter in the post-war resettlement of displaced persons programmes. She continued to work with Special Intelligence forces in Graz for several years before relocating to England. After a full and varied working life, Herti retired to Mullion in Cornwall.
