Regine Brandner was born in Villach and grew up in the valley of River Drau and on Lake Weissensee in Austria. She completed her studies in German and French Literature at the University of Vienna and at the Sorbonne in Paris. She also studied Acting Art at the Conservatory of Vienna, ancient Indian Sanskrit theatre Kutiyattam, yoga and meditation in India as well as creative transformation & trauma integration, trance and hypnosis coaching in Hamburg. In 2011 she was named »Teacher of the Year« by the Austrian Ministry of Education with an intercultural & cross-school youth theatre production »Buried - or who is Ellen?«, an adaptation of Ilse Aichinger's state-winning novel The Greater Hope. In 2006, she accidentally discovered the hidden »Dolmetzenloch«, a legendary cave of theso-called »Saligen«, the Blisslady of Lake Weissensee in Carinthia. From that moment on, the story and songs of a woman who lived in this cave, secluded, but only seemingly alone, were revealed to the author. A story more relevant than ever. A woman full of wisdom and hope.
