Maria Altmann

Maria Altmann (February 18, 1916 – February 7, 2011) was a Jewish refugee from Nazi Austria to the United States. She was an art collector. Altmann's family owned five paintings painted by Gustav Klimt. They were stolen by Nazis during World War II. She was successful in getting back those five paintings, which included two portraits of her aunt, Adele Bloch-Bauer.
Altmann was born in Vienna, Austria. She died at age 94.
The movie "Woman in Gold" is based on Altmann's life.
