Biography


Hoffmann was born in Leningrad in the USSR in September 1937 to an Estonian mother and a German father, who were both persecuted by the Soviet secret police. Hoffmann grew up in a Russian orphanage speaking Russian, and only arrived in Estonia after WWII in 1945, where she started learning Estonian for the first time and became a "staunch anti-Soviet". She trained as a painter before becoming a glass artist, and converting to Christianity despite religious persecution in the USSR.
