Gertrude Hoffman was born on May 17, 1871 in Germany. Gertrude Hoffman's big-screen debut came with Die blaue Laterne directed by Rudolf Biebrach in 1918. Gertrude Hoffman is known for My Little Margie directed by Hal Yates, Gale Storm stars as Margie Albright and Charles Farrell as Vern Albright. The upcoming new movie Gertrude Hoffman plays is Youngblood which will be released on Jan 31, 1986.

German-born Gertrude Hoffman began her film career in Germany in 1918, but she didn't start her Hollywood career until she was past 60 years of age, making her American film debut in 1933. She worked steadily and made quite a few films over the next 20 years, though many of her parts were unbilled. She is probably best remembered as Mrs. Odets, the sassy next-door neighbor to Gale Storm in My Little Margie (1952), who was always up for a "caper" in one of Margie's many crazy schemes. She died in Hollywood of a heart attack in 1966.
