In the early 1960s, she had supporting parts in very light entertainment films as the comedy Die Post geht ab/The Post Goes Out (Helmuth M. Backhaus, 1962) starring Vivi Bach, Wochentags immer/Weekdays Always (Michael Burk, 1963) and Zwei blaue Vergissmeinnicht/Carnation Frank (Helmuth M.

Hank also had a small role in the interesting Erich Kästner adaptation Liebe will gelernt sein/Love Must Be Learned (Kurt Hoffmann, 1963) starring Martin Held and Barbara Rütting.

She had a recurring role in the popular TV series Der Nachtkurier meldet.../The Evening Courier reports ... (1964–1965). Her last parts were in the TV films Dr. Murkes gesammelte Nachrufe/Dr. Murkes Collected Obituaries (Rolf Hädrich, 1965) with Dieter Hildebrandt and Dieter Borsche, and Vor Nachbarn wird gewarnt/A Warning About Neighbours (Paul Verhoeven, 1965), a crime comedy with Ernst Stankovski.
