During the 1970s, Barbara Frey did not work for the cameras but since the mid 1980s she continued her acting career on German television in films and series.
During the 1990s she appeared in Krimis like SOKO 5113 (1996), Tatort (1998) and Der Letzte Zeuge/The Last Witness (1999), but also in popular comedies like Das Traumschiff/The Dream Boat (1992) and Liebling - Kreuzberg/My Love - Kreuzberg (1997).
IMDb writes that she directed Uncle Wanja for TV in 2004, but there she is mistaken for the Swiss director Barbara Frey (1963).
