Charlotte Joël (1882 or 1887–1943) was a German photographer.
Career
Joël teamed up with photographer Marie Heinzelmann around 1918 and opened the photo studio Joël & Heinzelmann in Charlottenburg. [1] She was mainly interested in portrait photography, her portraits of well-known subjects included Walter Benjamin, Marlene Dietrich, Karl Kraus, Hedwig Lachmann or Gustav Landauer.
After Adolf Hitler's rise to power, as a Jew she was no longer able to work in her profession from 1933, but the studio continued under the name "Joël & Heinzelmann" until 1938/39. [2] With the help of her friend Clara Grunwald, Joël came to Landwerk Neuendorf, a Jewish workers' colony and training center, where she worked in the canteen. [3]
Personal life
On April 19, 1943, Joël was deported from Berlin to the extermination camp Auschwitz II-Birkenau on transport no. 37, where she was murdered.
Legacy
In 2013, a Stolperstein was laid in Berlin at Klopstockstraße 19 for Charlotte Joel.
