Her mother Rosemarie Dombrowski (née Rosemarie Arndt, known as Rosi) a hair stylist owned a couple of small town hair saloons, her father Günter Dombrowski (Helmut Günter Dombrowski) an exhibition manager who organized international presentations for the company Blohm&Voss passed away as Annabell was 19.Her father Günter (known as Dommi) was born in Kioewen, Prussia (Ostpreussen/Koenigsberg), a now defunct country that resided in the borders of Germany, Poland and Russia. After his father's death during the battle of Stalingrad (WWII), Günter's mother Auguste Dombrowski, a pastry chef, saved him, as her only son, from joining the Nazi youth and flew with him about 1947 to Hamburg, Germany. The handy young man found work as a theater technician and engineered some of the earliest movie theaters in the City of Hamburg. During the film crisis Günter went to the see and worked as a chef for the marines. Under lucky circumstances he was promoted to an exhibition manager by the the company Blohm + Voss (shipbuilding and engineering works, a subsidiary of ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems). During a period of globalization Blohm + Voss specified in luxury yachts (mega yacht Pelorus-Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich) and Cruise ship renovations (Queen Mary II, Blohm and Voss, St. Pauli, Hamburg, Germany, Europe). Annabell's mother was born in a small town near Hamburg in Germany to a German father who was a scenic artist at the Filmstudios Bendestorf. After WWII the small northern film town close to Hamburg became with Hildegard Knef's movie "Die Suenderin" ("The Sinner") the Hollywood of Germany in the 1950s. Annabell's parents met and lived in a tiny village near Hamburg, Germany, where her mother worked as a hair stylist.Born into a working family, Annabell's childhood was filled with travel experiences and urban living. With her father traveling most of the year, and her mother working overtime in her hair saloon business, Annabell drew great support from her grandmother and godmother, who took care of Annabell during her childhood years.At the age of nineteen, Annabell's life took a tragic turn for the worse when her father passed away unexpectedly. Günter's passing was quickly followed by the horrific news that Annabell's boyfriend at the time, and first love, was diagnosed with cancer. The family subsequently fell into financial hardship.

While studying, Annabell traveled to the South of France, where she absorbed, with great pleasure, the cultural delicacies of her new temporary home. Back in Germany Annabell was hired again by Christine Kroencke. Driven by her artistic surrounding Annabell quit her studies at the AMD two semesters before graduating and focused to work on her portfolio including paintings, sculptures and design of conceptional room concepts. Annabell was trying to move to Paris but wasn't lucky to find an apartment, she was willing to continue her studies, but was rejected a couple of times by the only University in Hamburg where you can study modern art.
