		TRAUDL JUNGE, who has died aged 81, worked as a secretary to Adolf Hitler from 1943 until the Führer committed suicide in his bunker in Berlin at the end of the war; it was she to whom Hitler dictated his last will and testament in those final days.
		Traudl Junge apparently never encountered the "second" Hitler, claiming that it was only after the war ended that she fully understood the evil perpetrated under the Third Reich: "We never saw him as the statesman, we didn't attend any of the conferences.
		When the end came, in the Berlin bunker, Traudl Junge witnessed Hitler poisoning his dog to verify that the potassium cyanide given him by Himmler as a means of committing suicide was genuine.

	Traudl Junge - .ceneus.notes
		Traudl Junge (March 16, 1920 - February 11, 2002) was the youngest of Adolf Hitler’s private secretaries during the Nazi regime.
		Traudl Junge is one of the handful of witnesses to Hitler’s last days in his fortified bunker as the Third Reich was collapsing above them.
		In most of her interviews she expressed a vehement hatred for the Nazi regime and ideology, and dissappointment in the young girl she once was for the naiveté and ignorance that led her to admire Hitler.

		With masterly ambiguity, the documentary, by the multi-talented André Heller, was called Blind Spot - a title that did justice both to Junge's claims to have been kept in the dark and the belief of many historians that she and others close to the Führer suffered from an entirely self-induced amnesia.
		Junge insisted that Hitler and other Nazi leaders "practically never mentioned the word Jew" in her presence, even though it was while she was working for the Führer that his regime killed most of the 6m Jews who died in the Holocaust.
		Junge had no children, but is survived by a sister who lives in Australia.

		Traudl Junge seems to be in the same boat as those that made pacts with Hitler and looked toward him to elevate Germany and improve what had become a rather untenable situation after World War 1.
		The difference is that Traudl Junge seems to truly feel that had she known then [1941] what she learned so painfully well in the years after the war about Herr Hitler, she would never have joined his office staff and ultimately become a passive passenger and unwitting participant in the deeds of Hitler's regime.
		Essentially then, it seems that Traudl Junge was very dissapointed, angry and felt betrayed by the conduct of Hitler in his administration of the 3rd reich, which she worked closely with him in: AFTER THE FACT.

	Blind Spot - Hitler's Secretary
		In Blind Spot - Hitler's Secretary, Traudl Junge describes on camera for the first time her experience working as one of Adolf Hitler's private secretaries from 1942 until his suicide in 1945.
		In Spring 2001, André Heller met Traudl Junge and was able to persuade her that it would be fascinating as well as historically important to make a record of her unique experiences...
		Traudl Junge died from cancer on February 11, 2002 in Munich just hours after Blind Spot had its World Premiere at the 52nd Berlin International Film Festival and just days after the publication of her memoirs, In the Final Hours.

	Traudl Junge: Until the Final Hour : Hitler's Last Secretary - Bøger
		Junge states that most of her time spent with Hitler was in the company of himself and the other secretaries.
		As an aside I read that when the book was completed, Junge, who was dying of cancer, said something to the effect that "her work was done" and died a few days later.
		Traudl Junge was a young woman when she spent the final years of the war on Hitler's team of personal secretaries.

	Las Vegas Weekly: BLIND SPOT: HITLER'S SECRETARY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Junge, who never became a member of the Nazi Party, felt disconnected from events happening right before her eyes, and even she seems unnerved by her young behavior.
		Traudl Junge had a difficult time after the war, but not as difficult as it was for the thousands upon thousands of former employees persecuted and murdered.
		Until the day she died, Junge wanted to understand why she was so naïve as to go to work for a "monster"—for taking "a position I never aspired to." Making this film may have brought answers to Traudl Junge, but to the viewer, it brings nothing but disquieting questions, and in a bad season.

		Traudl Junge, now 81 and suffering from cancer, was just 22-years-old when Hitler selected the slim blonde from a pool of hundreds of young applicants to become one of his secretaries, in December 1942.
		It was here on 28 April, as the bunker shook with each explosion outside, she took down what was to be the final document of the Third Reich, Hitler's last will and testament.
		Mrs Junge has frequently been called upon by historians seeking eyewitness accounts over the last fifty years, but her book, entitled To the final hour, is the first time memories penned herself have been published.

	Gerald Peary - film reviews - Blind Spot: Hitler's Secretary
		Traudl Junge was a well-mannered Bavarian girl raised by a single mother, who yearned, she recalls, for a father figure to enter her life.
		Junge persuaded him that such was not the case with her: "I've been without a man for 22 years," she told him.
		For the second: Junge began to see Hitler's downside, that, for example, "Human life meant nothing to him." But she never challenged him, because, "If you like and respect someone, you don't want to dent the image." Her epiphany came late, when she was asked to write down his last will.

	Blind Spot: Hitler's Secretary (2002): Traudl Junge - PopMatters Film Review
		A family friend recommended Junge for the secretary position in 1942, when she was 22 years old; she recalls that she passed the interview process with flying colors, though not without a bit of trickery.
		Junge's most gripping remembrances focus on Hitler's last days in the bunker, where he and his staff hid while Berlin was bombed by Allied forces.
		Even as the film doesn't blame Junge explicitly, the tremble in her voice and the tears welling in her eyes suggest she is amazed that she was ever able to discover her responsibility at all.

	Blind Spot: Hitler's Secretary (2002): Traudl Junge - PopMatters Film Review
		The secretary to whom Hitler dictated his last will and testament, Traudl Junge, survived the last days in the Führer's bunker, and with only a few brief exceptions, stayed mum on her experience for the rest of the century.
		Junge doesn't describe her young self, whom she can not forgive, as "a fervent Nazi," but explains, ruefully, "I just said yes, without thinking at all." It's familiar testimony, evoking at least one widely read source on such matters, Daniel Goldhagen's 1996 book, Hitler's Willing Executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust.
		Junge suggests that solace could only come in some small measure from knowing that in her terrible ignorance she was not alone.

	BLIND SPOT: HITLER'S SECRETARY presented by Cinemax Reel Life
		At the time, the naive Junge viewed the Fuhrer as a surrogate father figure, a gentle man in private, who was nothing like the crazed rhetorician of his speeches.
		Heller persuaded Junge that it would be historically relevant to record what she had witnessed, as well as cathartic to articulate her current attitudes toward her experiences after so many years of contemplation.
		Junge was outside Hitler's room when she heard a shot and learned of his death.

		Junge was once a naÃ¯ve and optimistic young woman who accepted a job working for the Nazis more out of curiosity than ideology.
		Traudl Junge is not a household name in America, where probably 5 of 10 people can't name the Vice President.
		Heller and Schmiderer seem convinced that the young, impressionable Junge was in so close to Hitler and his coterie, that "she was in blind spot." Junge herself floats this view and the filmmakers and marketers have run with it.

	Blind Spot: Hitler's Secretary (Im Toten Winkel - Hitlers Sekretärin)
		She speaks oddly wistfully of a limbo that accompanied the creeping realization that victory was beyond Germany's grasp: meals became a time for dispassionate discussion of effective methods of suicide, while an increasingly paranoid Hitler had taken to executing loved ones with alarming frequency, including his dog.
		Junge remains angry that Hitler and his new bride Eva Braun chose to kill themselves together, an act she perceived then as one of abandonment (her raison d'être was meeting the Führer's needs), but "now" resents for its cowardice.
		Junge emerges from this closing passage a Henry Hill figure unsure of how to resolve her youthful nostalgia with her youthful naiveté.

		Traudl Junge started working for Hitler in 1942 when she was twenty-two years old.
		Frau Junge (ne Humps) was entirely unsophisticated in political matters and an aspiring dancer when she took a job as a secretary in the Chancellery in Berlin.
		Perhaps understandably, Frau Junge had considered her position close to the Fhrer and his generals as an opportunity to gain a better understanding of the War and of Nazi policies, as she would be so near their source.

		Whatever we may make of Junge, it's ultimately clear that she was neither evil nor stupid.

	Im toten Winkel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Blind Spot is a 90-minute interview of Traudl Junge, the last personal secretary of the Third Reich dictator Adolf Hitler.
		Urged to tell her story by friend, German author Melissa Müller, Junge agreed to make a documentary with André Heller, an Austrian director and artist, some of whose Jewish family members died in Nazi death camps.
		Two excerpts of this work, including the introduction and conclusion, are featured in the movie Der Untergang, which itself is partly based on Until the final hour, the book of Junge about her experience with the Führer.

		Acclaimed film comprising an extended interview with 81-year-old Traudl Junge, who recalls her role as Adolf Hitler's personal secretary during his final years.
		It consists of a long interview with Traudl Junge, who was Hitler's secretary in the bunker during the closing days of the Reich.
		Traudl herself is wholly apolitical, and seems very pleasant, which gives an unexpected twist to her narrative of events in the bunker.

		Perhaps the answer is, "It depends." Traudl Junge is no longer as naive as she was as Hitler's secretary.
		The tragedy of Junge's life is that she separated herself from her feelings and repressed her experience, when she could have found some therapy by writing a detailed first-hand historical account.
		Traudl Junge's ability to bring out in me, a hardened cynic when it comes to the Nazis and their crimes against humanity, any kind of compassion, shocked the socks off me I can tell you.
