Biography
Bloch was born in 1848 in Lauban, Silesia. Her father was attendant at a local court, who could only afford to send his children to primary school.

In collaboration with C. von Breckheyde (Aline Neumann) she wrote two plays, Ein Heisser Tag—a farce, 1881; and Vor dem Fest—a comedy, 1889. Her other works are: Blauaugen—a farce, 1891; In Ernster Zeit—a drama; Lieutenant und Assessor, oder Maiwein—a comedy; and Strohwitwer—a farce, 1892. Bloch also published poetry and fiction in various magazines. [2]
