From November 1989 to 2016 he was the editor in charge of the environmental series Ozon on the television of the GDR and later on the Berlin Brandenburg radio . Following the adoption of the National Park Program of the GDR , he from 1993 to 2000 Chairman of the Association Nature Park Märkische Switzerland eV

Life

Hartmut Sommerschuh learned the trade of a skilled worker for mechanical engineering in a “special class with vocational training” at the Peter Apian Polytechnic and worked at VEB Spinnereimaschinenbau Leisnig, a branch of the TEXTIMA combine . In his spare time he became a student of the painter and graphic artist Karl Wagler , and attended theater rehearsals in Döbeln and Leipzig . After graduating from evening school, he completed an internship at television in the GDR from 1970 to 1971 under the director, graphic artist and puppeteer Hans Schroeder .

From 1971 to 1975 he studied directing at the Film and Television Academy (HFF), today Babelsberg Film University Konrad Wolf , in Potsdam . Together with his first wife, Riamara Sommerschuh, he then published the first programs on nature and environmental issues for the agricultural policy section on GDR television, including a portrait of the landscape architect Otto Rindt in 1980 and Landscape after Coal in 1982 , an elaborate film about landscape losses and recultivation efforts in the lignite areas of Lausitz. Their 1983 joint film Landscape without Fences about Erna and Kurt Kretschmann , the nestors of GDR nature conservation and inventors of the sign with the owl , triggered a flood of enthusiastic responses, but also harsh criticism and a ban on repetition by those responsible for television because of "counter-revolutionary tendencies" . Despite the communist sentiments and former persecution of Kurt Kretschmann by the Gestapo , the authors, Sommerschuh, were accused of an anti-socialist "outsider role" of the Kretschmanns in the film. This mainly referred to their attitude as pacifists and vegetarians .

Hartmut Sommerschuh initiated and shot almost 40 articles on environmental problems in GDR agriculture, mainly with the cameraman Werner Peter, for the series of programs founded at the end of 1983 . After a ban on circuits in the summer of 1989 by the Politburo member Werner Krolikowski , Hartmut Sommerschuh, together with committed colleagues and scientists on GDR television, won the series and editorial team of the same name, Ozon . The decisive factor was a protest article that was published on November 9, 1989 in the farmer's opinion . Until the merger of Sender Freies Berlin (SFB) and Ostdeutschem Rundfunk Brandenburg (ORB) in 2003, Sommerschuh was the editor-in-chief of Ozon, and remained editor in charge of Rundfunk Berlin Brandenburg (RBB) together with Heiderose Haesler until 2016 .

The film Bombs on Chemical Works (author: Sascha Adamek ), which he initiated and was responsible for in 1999 during the war in Yugoslavia, was one of the editorial staff's most dedicated programs , along with articles on the use of uranium ammunition and the history of the German chemical warfare agents tabun and sarin . Because of the NATO-critical description of the illegal chemical war against the Serbian Pančevo , the ORB wanted to prevent the film from being shown. Arte, however, supported Hartmut Sommerschuh and his authors and insisted on broadcasting.

The series Ozon with Hellmuth Henneberg as moderator was one of the longest lasting for the environment and science on German television until it was canceled in 2015. Five attempts that had been made since 1993 to discontinue the series in ORB and RBB were prevented by summer shoes and external protests.

Only for the East German nature conservation pioneers and initiators of the GDR's national park program around Michael Succow , but also for environmental associations such as NABU , BUND , the Green League and the Berlin Nature Conservation Foundation , Deutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH), the environmental commissioner of the Evangelical Church Berlin-Brandenburg - Silesian Upper Lusatia Reinhard Dalchow and many scientific institutes and associations such as proWissen Potsdam eV from the Berlin-Brandenburg region, Hartmut Sommerschuh and his ozone colleagues and authors have been an important mediator in public television for 26 years.

He also speaks out in daily political print media, for example in the daily newspaper Junge Welt and in the magazine Ossietzky .

In 1990, Sommerschuh and friends and colleagues founded the FÖN eV promotion association for public relations work in nature and environmental protection , which after the fall of the Wall became the home of a working group of German-German environmental writers and a Berlin youth group for graphics, painting and environmental care under the direction of Gilbert Waligora .

Hartmut Sommerschuh was chairman of the Naturpark Märkische Schweiz eV association from 1993-2000. Together with committed board members, he was able to save the former tourist station "Drei Eichen" in Buckow from closure from 1991 and expand it into an important visitor center for nature and environmental education in Brandenburg. From 1993 to 2009 he was also a member of the nature conservation council of the state government of Brandenburg.

Hartmut Sommerschuh has four children. He is married to the art historian Iris Berndt for the second time .
