Live and act

Schmiedel received acting lessons in the GDR and then played theater in Chemnitz and Erfurt . In 1955 he moved to the West, settled in Hamburg and in the same decade found employment at small theaters such as the Kammerspielkreis Lübeck .

Schmiedel made a remarkable debut in front of the camera in 1963 with his key role as the refugee Banner, who in the film drama Delay in Marienborn on GDR territory jumped on a Western Allied military platoon and thus caused a serious West-East incident between Americans and Russians. This was followed by a number of roles in television films, some of which were quite ambitious, such as the three-part film How a Tear in the Ocean (1969). A little later Schmiedel moved with his wife and two daughters to the vicinity of Leeuwarden , in the Netherlands . After appearing in Hans-Jürgen Syberberg's Karl May film, Hans-Joachim Schmiedel ended his film and television activities.

Schmiedel remained connected to the theater, for example, at the beginning of the 1980s he was employed at the Munich touring theater “die scene”. In the early 1970s he had also directed at the Theater der Jugend in Vienna .
