Biography of
Beatrix Ost
Anyone who has met Beatrix Ost knows that
she is impossible to pigeonhole. Often dressed
in haute couture of her own design, complete
with her characteristic turban, she embodies
the Zen of elegance and savoir vivre.
Born in 1940, Beatrix grew up in the tumultuous aftermath of the Second World War. She
studied painting with Kokoschka, danced at
the Isadora Duncan School, starred in movies and onstage, wrote scripts including Killer
Venus, and created the film Hearts’ Lonely
Hunters with her son Daniel Kuttner.
Having displayed her art at shows throughout
the world, she moved to New York where her
kaleidoscopic life took a new turn. She was
artist-in-residence at the New York Academy,
founded by Andy Warhol. Her art and style
were featured in “Vogue”, “Harper’s Bazaar”
and “Vanity Fair.” Bill Cunningham has
chronicled her many innovations in the world
of fashion and art, all embodying her motto:
In your body is a good place to be.
Her world is open to artists of every stripe,
peopled with the likes of Andrew Solomon,
John Casey, Nena, Bob and Uma Thurman,
Rita Dove, Wallie Shawn, Alan Buchman, Bob
Balaban, William Wegman, Sheila Metzner
and Deborah Eisenberg. Azzendine Alia designed couture for her. Even the new upstarts
in the fashion world look to her for inspiration. “She is inimitable,” say the Olsen Twins.
Her first memoir, My Father’s House, was published by the small press Helen Marx Books
in 2007. Readers clamored for more. Now,
with the sequel More Than Everything, The
Halycon Company, headed by Derek Anderson and Victor Kubicek, has discovered her
life, and a feature film is in the works.
Muse
Beatrix’s unique personal style has been an inspiration not only for some of the world’s greatest designers, from Azzendine Alia to Ron Shamask to Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, but also for cutting-edge architects such as Sulan Kolatan
and Bill MacDonald. She has excited readers in publications from “Vogue” to “Harper’s Bazaar” to “Vanity Fair” and has
been a regular fixture in Bill Cunningham’s column in “The New York Times” where he has chronicled her sartorial stylings for the last four decades. Beatrix also designed a fashion line for Nordstrom and is visible on the store’s website.

Writer
Beatrix’s books and screenplays share the variety and signature verve present in her paintings and drawings. Having
started as the screenwriter on Killer Venus and Hearts’ Lonely Hunters, she surprised everyone, and herself, by migrating
to prose. More Than Everything is her recent work, which Robert Thurman compared to Proust.

A Review
My Father’s House
Beatrix’s Debut Memoir
Published by Helen Marx Books, 2007
“Imagine a feminine Marcel Proust growing up consciously on a farm in Bavaria during troubled
times, delving into the archeology of desire through her parents’ love letters, and deftly evoking a
fascinating world with the sensitive eye and delicate hand of a skilled painter of scenes and moods
and emotions, and you’ll be ready to enjoy Beatrix Ost’s delicious gift, her book, My Father’s House.
She transports you there to her lost times and world most powerfully, unforgettably.”
- Robert Thurman, Professor and Author of Inner Revolution, Tibetan Book of the Dead, and Infinite Life
“Beatrix Ost has written a memoir which captures
the end of World War II in Germany through the
eyes of a bright and sensitive girl. The large farm, the
houses, the family and the many other people they
sheltered come to life. It is as though Beatrix Ost
pressed her head on each page and magically transmitted (oh! If it could ever be that easy!) the vision
of the little girl she was then and the wisdom of the
woman she is now. This is a valuable testimony, but
above all a gorgeous book.”
- John Casey, Award Winning American Writer
“Occasionally we meet a writer whose work can be read not only for historical detail but
also for the sheer pleasure of the act of reading. Beatrix Ost is just such a writer, and a recent
journey with her husband to the idyllic Bavarian farmland of her youth carries this beautiful
memoir through the innocent travails of youthful innocence and the horrors of Nazi administration. Throughout, the nuances of a youthful view of life in a war-torn land, combined with
her skill in choosing the perfect sentiment time and time again, left me both breathless and
inspired. Ost writes with the flair and freedom of the artist supported by the precision of a
diamond cutter. If you have ever wondered what it was like for an established, intelligent and
sensitive family in Hitlerian Bavaria, you will find the wonders of truth in My Father’s House.”
- Dennis Smith, Writer
An Introduction
By Andrew Solomon
The first time I met Trixi Ost was in my living room, where a friend had brought her to tea, and I was overwhelmed by
what she looked like: this beautiful woman with her piercing sapphire eyes, and her grey hair streaked with bright blue
as though she had come from the atelier of Yves Klein, and her bright red lips, and the elegant jewelry, and a perfectly
tailored suit, and that amazing Bavarian accent that resonated from some more civilized time and world but also seemed
to know the underside of the avant-garde. Here was a refined mix of extravagance and severity, as though she had allowed herself everything and then, with rigorous self-discipline, had removed half from the mix. I was so struck by her
almost forbidding glamour that I didn’t notice, for the moment, that she also has a smile in which all the world’s openness and generosity are expressed. After she left, the friend who had introduced us asked whether I didn’t think she was
the warmest person I’d ever met, and only then did I retrospectively notice the thrill of her enthusiasm, which I later
learned to know as love.
Six months later, Trixi and I went to Nepal together, along with other friends. There are not so many people with whom
one would be bound for Nepal on such brief acquaintance, but once you enter Trixi’s world, you are in it deep, and we
had both wanted to visit the monasteries of the highlands and the palaces of Kathmandu and Patan. Halfway through
our wonderful trip, we ended up waiting for several hours at an airstrip near the foot of Mt. Everest, and it was there
that Trixi began telling me stories of her past. It is not always the case that a great storyteller has great stories to tell, but
Trixi’s life in Germany was as fascinating as her recitation was eloquent, and on that windy mountain, a history and a
sensibility were revealed to me. Some of the anecdotes were difficult ones, but she recounted them with joy.
Her book is a lot like her. It’s impressionistic; it scuttles along from one thing to another in a way that can be confusing; it’s very stylized and yet also disarmingly frank, with its gentle humor and its embracing of collective humanity. So
often in literature, style obscures content, but here the content feels transparently exposed even though the style is highly
visible, much as in real life Trixi’s naturalness of emotion coexists with her chic self-presentation. The book expresses a
child’s naive pleasures, and so its evocation of childhood is utterly convincing; but it also reflects the astuteness of someone in the later part of her life, who can compare her own youth to that of her grandchildren. What one most senses
here is an underlying kindness. In an age when fashionable memoirs recount the lurid foibles of dysfunctional families,
this one is written with authentic affection and great respect. But it is no gauzy fantasy. These are real people, with their
many imperfections: the pretentious Aunt Julia, the nightmarish Marie-Louise, the nervous General Brün, the resigned
Grandfather Theodor. Through it all runs the melancholy of Trixi’s father, Fritz, the stern and capable master of Goldachhof, aristocratic and repressed, loved but feared and never quite known. The only person who seems unequivocally
rosy is Adi, the mother who holds the center with her infinite gentleness and mercy and wisdom: sometimes stern,
as when she takes the chambermaid to get an abortion; sometimes heroic, as when one of the farm workers murders
another and she has to restore order; but always empathetic, knowing, as mothers should, the feelings of her children
before the children do themselves. She is sympathetic magic incarnate.
The process of this book is the accrual of anecdote. There is no grand underlying narrative trajectory except the passage
of time and a child’s slow maturation. Still, these are not just discrete sketches; they accumulate to form rich characters
and evoke a vanished life so palpably that one tastes it. The author rekindles the sensuality of things long gone: the flavor
of the black-market coffee to which Grandmother was addicted as though it were opium, selling off family treasures to
get it; the smell of the cigar Trixi stole from her father’s drawer for the neighborhood boys; the sweet taste of berries
gathered at a secret spot deep in the woods. In the way of children, Trixi makes little social distinction between her relatives and the foreign servants who kept the household running: passionate, homesick Olga, the Russian cook; flighty, irrepressible Justa, the Yugoslavian chambermaid; and elegant Umer, the Hungarian coachman, with his intuitive control
over the horses and his deep connection to Fritz. These staff worked hard, and in turn were cared for and educated by
the family. The local farm workers and their bewildering kin also figure large: the sinister Sepp with his dead moles, the
sprawling König family with their cheerful violence. Even the animals have vivid personalities: the terrifying, tumescent
bull seeking his cow; the high-strung horses who could turn wild at any time; and, most wonderfully, the doe who came
to stay for a winter and slept under the kitchen stove until springtime tempted her back to the wild.
My Father’s House is imbued with a profound sense of place. Every aspect of Goldachhof ’s hallway and kitchen and living room is evoked, and the shapes of the royal-crested furniture, the textures of the woods and the moor, the very dirt
of the fields. The farm is a character in the lives of the people whom it has embraced, and the landscape of Bavaria is a
necessary condition to these stories. Trixi Ost has lived most of her life in the United States, and that particular yearning
that is the harsh fate of expatriates comes through in the sharpness of her recollections. Her regional pride is rendered
more vivid because so many of the domestics and farm-workers who lived beside her dreamt of homelands to the East.
Little Trixi could not fathom how or why they would want to be anyplace but right where she was happiest, but that
very happiness throws their sadness and longing into poignant relief.
The good manners that Fritz and Adi taught to the children and servants are somehow borne out in the way Trixi tells
the stories, apt and precise but always a little deferential to those who were older and wiser than she. Despite this reserve,
she acknowledges how the sinister quality of the outside world impinged on Goldachhof, and the book has a richly specific flavor of its time. Adi had to buy and sell food illegally, and Trixi was afraid of these clandestine acts committed in
the half-light of dusk. From time to time, the impoverished gleaners would come to pick whatever the farm workers had
left behind, and she did not miss the hungry rumble of their despair. When the air raid sirens went, and they went often,
the children hid under the bridge, barely protected. And yet for Trixi, it was possible to love the Americans when they
came, not as liberators and not as conquerors, but as an interesting new variety of people among whom she would spend
her adult life.
America’s perspective on wartime Germany remains famously tortured. We see it through the eyes of victims: the Poles,
and the Jews, and the brave men who plotted against Hitler, and the Allied soldiers. We hear almost nothing of what
happened to ordinary Germans. The idea of “two Germanys” is often used in relation to the subsequent division of the
country into East and West, but there is another Teutonic dichotomy, and it is between the Germany of brutalism and
expansionism and concentration camps, and the Germany that is all gingerbread and music and apple-cheeked women
in dirndls, and this book is a resounding affirmation that this good Germany existed even in the period when the evil
Germany was ascendant. Fritz managed to resign from the Nazi party after serving in North Africa; he detested Hitler and the war, but kept a policy of “don’t ask, don’t tell” in his own ever-expanding household, which was constantly
absorbing displaced relatives and friends. Trixi’s troublesome brother Uli, on the other hand, happily signed up for
Hitler Youth, and was kept out of the SS only by his authoritarian father. The dinner time debates about the Nazis took
much the form of political debate in any family in any place; these could be arguments about George W. Bush, and do
not participate in the absolutism with which history has treated National Socialism. It is one of the refinements of this
narrative not to sentimentalize the characters into false acts of political courage. Mostly, these people were not engaged
with politics, but with immutable rural concerns, cycles and struggles more fundamental than those of policy. Their
idyll was not about formulating a better social system, but about escaping systems they could not hope to change. Of
course, for the child through whose eyes we see, these matters were all incomprehensibly abstract anyway. The fact that
the book is neither an indictment nor a rationalization makes more touching the scene in which a group of Serbs and
Gypsies appear on the horizon and walk toward the farm, refugees from Dachau. The kindness that Trixi’s mother shows
them, nursing one through his final hours, is universal, an embodiment of character rather than of politics. The most evil
things imaginable happened in wartime Germany, but all of humanity was not corrupted. Beside unspeakable horror
and great moral courage, simple benevolence also persisted.
At the end of this book, the reader finds himself nostalgic for someone else’s childhood. That is no mean accomplishment. It is particularly impressive given that the tale is set in a malevolent larger context. These stories are not saccharine,
but their message is that wartime is not antithetical to love or to beauty. Those dark days formed the person who is our
narrator, whom one cannot help but like and admire, in part for the way she likes and admires her own past self. Between the Trixilein who is described and the Trixi who is describing, there is unbroken continuity, and that is as reassuring to the reader as recollection of the farm’s cozy solace is to the author.

More Than Everything
Beatrix’s Second Memoir
Thoughts from Others
“A proper young girl defies her family and gambles everything, or more than everything, on love. And she loses.
‘With his soul each person will take his indescribable flight,’ wrote Mandelstam, ‘like the swallow before the storm’, but
in More than Everything the flight is described, breathtakingly: a young artist’s own whooshing flight into passion, its
early joys and then disaster: the flame-out of loving a bad alcoholic.
Quicksilver and terribly alive, what’s most remarkable in More than Everything is the point of view, as of a sun or a star.
As she ranges from happiness to misery, the voice speaks from that still center, no matter the crashing wash of human
planets circling around her...
The heroic keeping of that poise in the face of all obstacles, and the finding of a language capable of summarizing in
words that lift of the head, that swan neck of poise, is the book’s triumph: the reader is with her, with her grace and pain,
every inch of the way. Her great love for Ferdinand (dancing in flames like a small Indio god) may have to die there in
Mexico, but Ost stunningly captures her own dreamlike voyage to adulthood: shaking free of an impossibly dark life as
the wife of an alcoholic, she brushes off the stardust of romance and, stepping back in the light, comes into her own.”
- Barbara Epler, President and Editor-In-Chief, New Directions Books

“More Than Everything takes us so deeply and poetically into the delicious journey of Beatrix as she moves beyond My
Father’s House and into a post-holocaust world we have never encountered from the perspective of those from whom it
was hidden. Her personal quest, love of life, suffering and liberation poignantly echo the struggle of her people to raise
their beautiful land up out of the ashes, and gradually create a society inconceivably renewed and intensely dedicated to
never again allowing such horrors to arise. I strongly recommend this poignant, touching, and inspiring memoir.”
- Robert Thurman, Professor and Author of Inner Revolution, Tibetan Book of the Dead, and Infinite Life
Photo illustration for “More Than Everything”.
“So many, many lovely lines... ‘across a little bridge, toward the forest, which like a broad charcoal stroke separated
the land from the sky’...
I love best the pages on which she, and I, her reader, lived in the country, the ponds, the lanes, the deep forests, the
farm itself a kind of character. I, too, grew up (or at least until the age of twelve) in the country and all of that, however
weighted with sorrow, is somehow searched for again on my own farm, in this time.
Her portrait of Frau Rider on 114 and 115 is exceptional. ‘Warily hanging her head a little forward, leaning it to the side,
full of mistrust... she balanced her heavy, squat body like a weight on the edge of the chair, as if she would be leaping
up and running off any moment...’ And then she writes of her hand at her purse: ‘open, shut, open, shut.’.. I cannot, of
course, name all the passages that engaged me, for I would be at it for some time. But I know that I appreciate her crafting skills, and power to remember, and the grand ability to bring back a time that was full of both marrow and bone.
Her father’s death scene and the unwritten letter which her mother composed in her heart, a gem.”
- Jan Karon, American Writer and Novelist: The Mitford Years Series
Photo illustration for “More Than Everything”.
“When Beatrix Ost enters a room, or your life, there will be change that lasts forever. She herself is a living and breathing celebration. Her More Than Everything is written with the brush stroke of Kandinsky. A fascinating sequel to My
Father’s House.”
- Alan Buchman, Director of Culture Project Theater
Photo illustration for “More Than Everything”.
“Beatrix Ost is an extraordinary writer and I am proud of having published her lyrical and spellbinding childhood memoir, My Father’s House.
Her dazzling new book continues the fascinating story. Beatrix studies with Oskar Kokoschka, dances at the Isadora
Duncan school, and eventually marries the dark and mystical Ferdinand. Her descriptions of their life together in Munich and Mexico, surrounded by the cultural elite, are sensuous and intoxicating. Her Proustian sense of the past draws
us into this magical and sometimes tragic story, exploring the nature of love.”
- Jeannette Watson, Writer Muse and Former Publisher
Photo illustration for “More Than Everything”.
“Seldom does it happen, but I finished More Than Everything in a day. I did not want to stop. The story moves you along
at such a compelling pace, with such variation of rhythms, until you go galloping into oblivion and revelation at the end.
Beatrix Ost has told a remarkable story, but most importantly, she has told it in a language of the senses, as few people
know how to do. Every scene achieves what she says Kokoschka wanted in a painting: for the object to catch hold and
reflect everything that is contained in the room. I was breathless reading her words, and sometimes I just had to stop and
marvel.”
- Rosalind Casey, Artist
Photo illustration for “More Than Everything”.
“All one can wish for is more AND more AND more of Beatrix Ost’s More Than Everything. A turbulent, jubilant, shattering, ebullient celebration of life and love, betrayal and survival. And every page an extraordinary sensual banquet of
language, powerfully and evocatively rendered with innate compassion and unobtrusive grace.”
- Camilla Carr, Playwright and Screenwriter: All About Bette: An Interlude with Bette Davis
Photo illustration for “More Than Everything”.
“Beatrix uses words like she uses paint. . . with brush strokes so vivid and rich, I feel as if I’m there watching as her story
unfolds. I love this book!”
