Bruno Hampel
Bruno Hampel (born December 23, 1920 in Berlin , † September 16, 1996 in Munich ) was a German author and screenwriter.
After graduating from high school and completing military service, Hampel worked as an editor from 1954 to 1960, before becoming a freelance writer.
As Heinz Glogau , he wrote several novels. He is known to the public as the author of around 130 books on TV films and TV series. He made a name for himself as a crime writer in the 39-part television crime series Kommissar Freytag (1963–1966) with Konrad Georg , for which he provided all the scripts. In the 1960s he also wrote many books for the television series Das Kriminalmuseum and Polizeifunk ruft , followed by episodes for Hamburg Transit , the Tatort ( bankrupt vulture, among others ) and Der Alte in the 1970s . Hampel knew how to tell crime stories that were logically thought out and often came up with a surprising resolution. However, he also wrote off himself here and there, for example using the same story for Inspector Freytag: Back then in Leverkusen , police radio calls: Before the statute of limitations and The old man: The fear of the pharmacist . He also wrote the scripts for the 13-part television series Notarztwagen 7 , Private Detective Frank Kross , Car Rental Pistulla and the 26-part television series Football Coach Wulff .
In 1985 he received the Golden Pin of the Dramatiker Union for his services .
