Maria Furtwängler-Burda (born September 13, 1966) is a German physician and television actress. She is the daughter of an architect and actress Kathrin Ackermann and at once grandniece and step-granddaughter of the conductor Wilhelm Furtwängler.
Born in Munich, after school Maria Furtwängler trained and then worked as a medical doctor. In 1991 she married art historian Dr. Hubert Burda (born 1940), the youngest son of publisher Aenne Burda and CEO of Hubert Burda Media, an international media group which publishes more than 180 magazine titles, including many fashion magazines. The couple has two children, Jakob (born 1990) and Elisabeth (born 1992).
In the mid-1990s Furtwängler continued her television career. Since 2002 she has been particularly successful as Hanover-based police detective Charlotte Lindholm in the Tatort series.
She focuses her charitable work on Ärzte für die Dritte Welt (Physicians for the Third World).
