(1918-2009) Isa Vermehren was a German comedian, actress and later a nun. In the 1930s she was active as part of the political-literary cabaret Katakombe, written and produced by Werner Finck, in which she sang sailor songs, love ballads and sly satires and taunts against the Nazi regime with "Agathe", her trademark accordion.
