Work
He provided the German dub voices for Marlon Brando, John Goodman, Yaphet Kotto, Jean Reno, and Samuel L. Jackson.[1]
He also collaborated with the German trance/techno-band E Nomine on a number of their albums.
He voiced Maurice in the German dub of The Penguins of Madagascar and Waternoose in the German dub of Monsters Inc.
His best-known acting role was that of Hermann Paschulke, the fuddy-duddy and clumsy, but good-hearted neighbor in the highly successful and long-running German children's TV program Löwenzahn. He played the role for 38 years, from 1981 until shortly before his death in 2019. On 17 May 2020, a special Löwenzahn episode was broadcast that paid homage and said goodbye to him and his role in the show.[2]
