Ingeborg Mathilde Dolores Kummerow (née Picker; 23 August 1912 - 5 August 1943) was a Berlin office worker and housewife who, in 1936, had married Dr Hans-Heinrich Kummerow, a high-flying telecommunications engineer, employed in the research and development department at Loewe-Radio-AG. The couple had two sons.
Loewe was an electronics company which had taken a lead in developing televisions technology, but which was by this time increasingly concentrating on defence related telecommunications technology.
It was through her husband that Ingeborg became involved in anti-government resistance. She was one of a batch of 17 guillotined at Plötzensee Prison on 5 August 1943, aged 30. Sources giving the date of her execution, incorrectly, as 5 August 1944 are believed to be based on a self-perpetuating error.[1][2][3][4]
