Ingrid Steeger died in a hospital in Bad Hersfeld. At the beginning of her acting career, she was mostly cast as a revealing soft-sex actress and funny noodle. It was made popular by the television series "Klimbim" by Michael Pfleghar. The series ran from 1973 to 1979. There Steeger played alongside Elisabeth Volkmann, Horst Jüssen, Wichart von Roëll and Peer Augustinski. In 1992 she made the switch to the serious subject with the role of Mona in the four-part television series "Der grosse Bellheim" by Dieter Wedel.

Photographer Frank Quade made her a model. Among other things, she became the advertising face of the Rolo and Old Spice brands. This made her one of the first female German stars to advertise branded products.

An eventful and tragic relationship life

Ingrid Steeger also made headlines for her numerous relationships and divorces. She was married to the cinematographer Lothar Elias Stickelbrucks and the American environmentalist Tom LaBlanc, among others, and lived with the actor Bernd Seebacher and director Dieter Wedel.

In 1997 Ingrid Steeger moved to Hamburg, and from 2010 she lived in Munich Schwabing. From there, she moved to Bad Hersfeld in 2020, where she lived with her sister Jutta. After health problems and a fall in September 2022, she lived in a nursing home.
