Henriette von Schirach was born as Henriette Hoffmann on the 2 February 1913 in Munich, then part of the German Empire. Her father Heinrich Hoffmann was a photographer, and her mother Therese Baumann was a former singer and actress who died a sudden and unexpected death in 1928 when Henriette was only 15 years old.
In 1919, Henriette’s father Heinrich met Adolf Hitler and in April of the following year he joined the Nazi Party.
In 1921, Hitler took control of the party and 2 years later he named Hoffmann his official photographer. No other photographer but Hoffmann was allowed to take pictures of him. Hoffmann tried to portray Hitler as the epitome of the German people, which was difficult because the future Führer lacked the racial profile of the Nordic race. As a result, Hoffmann tried to portray Hitler in the best light by focusing more on his eyes, which many found dreamy and hypnotic.
