Haas was born 1914 in Slovenska Bistrica, which was part of Austria-Hungary at the time.[2] She was baptized Herta Gabriele Schindler[3] and was the illegitimate daughter of Prisca Schindler (1888–1975) and the lawyer Heinrich Haas (1864–1925). After Heinrich Haas obtained a divorce from his wife, Elsa Demel Haas (1868–1951), he married Herta's mother in 1924.[3][4] Her surname was legally changed to Haas in 1925.[3][4]
Later lifeedit
She joined the revolutionary workers movement in high school and worked as a courier between groups in Yugoslavia and France.[2]
Haas met Tito in Paris in 1937,[2] a year after he had divorced his first wife, Pelagija "Polka" Belousova. In 1940, Haas travelled to Istanbul to deliver a passport to Tito, who was returning from a trip to Moscow.[2] Their relationship soon turned romantic, according to Tito's authorized biography, The Loves of Josip Broz Tito.[2] The couple married in 1940[1] and returned to Yugoslavia using aliases.[2] They lived in Zagreb until the Invasion of Yugoslavia, when Tito moved to Belgrade, while Haas, who was pregnant with their only child, remained in Zagreb.[2]
In May 1941, Haas gave birth to their only son, Mišo Broz, who was a Croatian ambassador to Indonesia from 2004 to 2009.[1] Partisan supporters hid Haas and her son from Nazi German authorities and their allies, but she was eventually caught and arrested.[2] She was swapped for a German officer in a 1943 prisoner exchange between the Germans and the Partisans.[2]
By the time Haas was released and rejoined the Partisans in 1943, Tito was having an affair with his personal secretary Davorjanka Paunović, who was code named "Zdenka".[2] Haas and Tito suddenly separated in 1943 in Jajce during the second meeting of AVNOJ after she reportedly walked in on him and Davorjanka Paunović.[5] Haas spent much of the rest of World War II in Slovenia, away from Tito.[2]
Haas reportedly met Tito only once after World War II during a visit to his presidential office in Belgrade.[2] Following the end of the war, Haas worked at several Yugoslav government institutions.[1] She remarried and gave birth to two daughters, one of them is researcher Cvetana Krstev.[2] She lived much of her later life in relative obscurity.
Haas died in Belgrade, Serbia, on 5 March 2010 at the age of 95.[2]
