Kate Steinitz (2 August 1889 - 7 April 1975), informally known as “the Mama of Dada,” played a significant role in the history of art on a number of levels: in the creation of her own art works, as a preserver and collector of the art of her times (the European Bauhaus and Dadaist movements of the early 20th century), as a promoter of art and artists, and, for the last thirty years of her life, as a librarian of the Elmer Belt Library of Vinciana, first when the library was based in the collector's medical offices in downtown Los Angeles, and later as honorary curator when the collection was given to UCLA in 1961.

  • Käte Steinitz (geborene Fanny Elisabeth Käthe Traumann, englisch Kate Steinitz oder Kate Trauman Steinitz, Pseudonym: Annette C. Nobody) (* 2. August 1889 in Beuthen/Oberschlesien; † 7. April 1975 in Los Angeles) war eine deutsche, später US-amerikanische Malerin, Kunstkritikerin, Bibliothekarin und Lehrerin. In Hannover veröffentlichte sie in den 1920er Jahren avantgardistische, typographische Schriften, unter anderem gemeinsam mit Kurt Schwitters, war in ihrem Salon Gastgeberin zahlreicher Persönlichkeiten der Kunstgeschichte. Die von den Nationalsozialisten verfemte Künstlerin mit jüdischen Wurzeln machte sich nach ihrer Emigration in die USA wiederum einen Namen mit Werken über Leonardo da Vinci. (de)
