At the age of eight, Greta Keller studied dancing and later she went to acting school. Her début was in "Pavillon" in Vienna. She also played on Stage with Marlene Dietrich in "Broadway", in which she sang and danced. She had a recording contract with Ultraphon in 1929. Her career as a singer took her from Vienna to Prague and Berlin, where she had a big success with Peter Igelhoff and Peter Kreuder.
