Life
The son of an employee attended school in Berlin and the pilot school in Koethen. Drinda completed an apprenticeship as an aircraft engine fitter at the Junkers factories and began studying at the Gotenhafen War School in the fall of 1944 in order to prepare for a career as a technical officer in the Wehrmacht . In January 1945 he was used in the infantry, wounded in the fighting around Berlin and finally captured. He escaped and helped with the cleanup.
In the late summer of 1945 he auditioned for Gustav von Wangenheim and through his mediation was accepted as a scholarship holder at the drama school of the Deutsches Theater in Berlin, where he was engaged from 1946 to 1947 and on April 3, 1946 in the play We call you hope by Fred Denger debuted .

Drinda made his film debut in 1948 in And Again 48 , but cinema remained a sideline for him for a long time. He played his most important film role in 1964/1965 in The best years as a worker and communist Ernst Machner, who returns from the war and becomes a teacher, which shows 15 years of educational development in the GDR in his ascent.
