Gebhardt trained as a journalist and from 1982 worked as an editor.[1] From 1988 to 1993 she studied Social and Economic history, Regional History and Modern German Literature at Munich University. In 1988 she obtained a doctorate in Modern History under Clemens Wischermann at the University of Münster with a thesis on family memories.[1]

From 2003 Gebhardt held an academic post at Collaborative Research Centre 485 (Norm and Symbol) at the University of Konstanz, where she obtained her habilitation in Modern and Contemporary History in July 2008. She currently lectures at the University of Konstanz as an adjunct professor and writes non-fiction books.[1]
