Hermann Picha , born as Hermann August Karl Picher , (born March 20, 1865 in Berlin ; † June 7, 1936 there ) was a German actor .

Life

Hermann Picha made his theater debut in Jauer in 1885 and then played in Detmold , Heilbronn and Hamburg . In 1890 he got an engagement at the Bellevue Theater in Stettin , where he stayed for 15 years.

In 1905 he was engaged by the Berlin Theater in Berlin. In addition, he later worked on other Berlin theaters such as the Großer Schauspielhaus , the Lustspielhaus and the Deutsches Künstlerhaus.

In 1914 he got his first film role, and Picha became one of the most sought-after supporting actors in German silent film. He embodied weird, eccentric types on the edge of the action. Only in exceptional cases did he take on leading roles such as the figure of the tailor Wibbel in the film of the same name in 1920 and the shoemaker Wilhelm Voigt in Der Hauptmann von Köpenick in 1926 .

Picha is buried in the II. Municipal cemetery Eythstrasse in Berlin-Schöneberg .
