I haven't found anything out about her outside the little cited here, which comes from McGilligan's book. Her film credits are sparse -- I wonder what became of her post-Metropolis? The 20th century certainly offered plenty of opportunities to have one's career violently cut short, expecially in that part of the world. Could be.
