Hanni Heinrich is a German actress and writer. Hanni has always been fascinated by storytelling and the art of communication, which is why she started out as a journalist, asking questions and digging for the truth.

Hanni believes in extensive preparation before taking on any role, and will fill herself up with as much history about her character's personality, background story or other characteristics that would make it more interesting to play them. At the age of seven she made her first stage appearance as "the good bird" in a local christmas-theatre-production of the Merseburger Schlossgartensalon.
