Birgit Bergen was born in 1938 in Kiel. She was the daughter of a bailiff. From 1958 on she appeared in films and on TV - mostly in secondary roles.
Among her first films were Nackt, wie Gott sie schuf/Naked Like God Created Her (Hans Schott-Schöbinger, 1958) featuring Italian sex symbol Marisa Allasio, Lass mich am Sonntag nicht allein/Don’t Leave me Alone On Sunday (Arthur Maria Rabenalt, 1959) with Heidi Brühl, and Lebensborn/Ordered to Love (Werner Klingler, 1961) starring Maria Perschy.
Bergen also appeared in international productions like the adventure film Maciste contro i mostri/Colossus of the Stone Age (Guido Malatesta, 1962) as a nude blonde, or Les saintes nitouches/Wild Living (Pierre Montazel, 1963) in an uncredited part.
In Germany she played small parts in the comedy Bei Pichler stimmt die Kasse nicht/Pichler's Books Are Not in Order (Hans Quest, 1961) with Theo Lingen, and in one of the many Edgar Wallace crime films of the 1960s, Der Würger vom Tower/Strangler of the Tower (Hans Mehringer, 1966) featuring Ellen Schwiers.
On TV Bergen appeared briefly as a street prostitute in an episode of the popular Krimi series Der Kommissar/The Commissioner (1969) starring Erik Ode.

In the early 1970s, Birgit Bergen became very busy during the sex wave of the German cinema. She often appeared as the good-time girl or the unfaithful wife in Lederhosefilms (rural sex comedies).
These productions had such titles as Laß jucken, Kumpel!/Allow to itch, mate! (Franz Marischka, 1972), Liebesgrüße aus der Lederhose/Love greetings from the leather trousers (Jürgen Enz, 1973) and Junge Mädchen mögen's heiß, Hausfrauen noch heißer/Young girls like it hot, housewives still hotter (Eberhard Schröder, 1973).
She also appeared in such politically incorrect sex crap as Eine Armee Gretchen/She Devils of the SS (Erwin C. Dietrich, 1973).
Later she played in non-sex films like Johnny West (Roald Koller, 1977). Her last film role was a small part in the action film Brass Target (John Hough, 1978), starring Sophia Loren. In 1991 she made a guest appearance on the TV series Ehen vor Gericht/Marriages in Court.
Since then Birgit Bergen stays regularly fodder for the boulevard press because of her facefifts or because of her dubious friendships. As a media personality she is a regular guest at marketing events in Munich.

Looking at that first postcard I couldn't help but think how she would be considered "plump" by today's Hollywood. I think she is gorgeous.
