Heidi Witzig

Heidi Witzig (born 1944), formerly known as Heidi Schäppi-Witzig and now as Heidi Witzig Vetterli,[1] is a Swiss historian.

Biography

Witzig was born in 1944 in Zürich.[2] She is the daughter of an office furniture manufacturer.[3] She grew up in Frauenfeld in the canton of Thurgau.[3] She studied history and art history at the universities of Zurich and Florence and earned a doctorate in Zürich with a work about the early Italian Renaissance in 1978.[2] She subsequently worked as a documentalist at Schweizer Fernsehen DSR.[4] She has been a freelance historian since 1986, with a focus on Alltagsgeschichte and women's history.[2] Her works were "motivated for a long time by the anger against the unequal treatment of women".[3]

Around 1982, she became a Socialist municipality councillor in Uster, canton of Zürich.[5][6]

As a co-initiator of the GrossmütterRevolution ("Grandmothers' Revolution"), she engages in favour of "women in retiring age for a maturity in dignity and social protection for all".[7]

Heidi Witzig is a widowed mother of a daughter.[2]
