Live and act

Ramharter received his artistic training from Professor Streben and made his stage debut in the Moravian Olomouc in 1890. The classic ox tour through the province followed, and Ramharter played and staged on Austrian-Hungarian stages such as those in Kronstadt, Laibach, Reichenberg, Salzburg, Pressburg and Innsbruck. His preferred role was that of the character comedian in antics, folk plays and operettas. In the 1906/1907 season Ramharter returned to Vienna and was engaged as an actor and director at the Raimund Theater . Shortly afterwards he worked in the same position for the theater in der Josefstadt .

At the side of his Josefstadt colleagues Louis Nerz , Hans Rhoden , Marietta Weber and Dora Hrach , Ramharter made his debut as a film actor in 1914 in the cinema Schwank The Storch is Dead . Especially since he moved to Berlin, Ramharter made one film after another in 1916/17. He received supporting roles in productions by Richard Oswald , Rudolf Meinert , Willy Zeyn senior and Paul von Woringen and was a film partner of stars such as Bernd Aldor , Reinhold Schünzel , Lotte Neumann , Erich Kaiser-Titz , Hans Mierendorff and Friedrich Zelnik . Then he completely disappeared from the public eye. Since Ramharter himself was no longer listed in the registers of the stage yearbooks from the beginning of the 1920s, he could have died between 1917 and 1919.
