1992/05/06 - Paris Marlene Dietrich found death in her apartment.



Since 1978, Marlene Dietrich occupied a two room apartment overlooking a courtyard garden, at 12 Avenue Montaigne  in Paris. Being bedridden for her final five years, she would spend hours chatting with her friends across the world on two telephones (spending up to $7,500 a month). Only on extremely rare occasions would she be seen leaving the front door. It was in this apartment that Dietrich died. She was 90 years old.

„I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself.“ - Marlene Dietrich
