As a successful inventor as her, surprises me that she had the time to all so be Hollywood star as well. But she did that as more of a side hustle rather than a main job for her. During when she use to do movies such as Geld auf der Strabe (Money on the Street), She had a small table inventing set in her trailer and between takes she would spend that time inventing things.
