Life

After the war Jürgen Frohriep got involved in the FDJ amateur play movement.

From 1948 to spring 1951 he was a member of Studio 48 of the State Drama School Schwerin in Putbus Castle under the direction of Heinz Kahlow . In the course of his training he worked there in several productions.

In 1951 , he was engaged at the Berlin Theater of Friendship . Further appearances at various theaters in the GDR followed . At the end of the 1950s, Konrad Wolf gave him the lead role in his anti-war film Stars (1959). The film was Frohriep's professional breakthrough. As a permanent member of the DEFA ensemble, he was then assigned roles based on the type of soldier. In Wolf unter Wölfen (1965, based on a novel by Hans Fallada ), Frohriep played an officer in the Black Reichswehr . In 1966 he embodied the racing driver Manfred von Brauchitsch in Without a fight no victory . From the end of the sixties, the role offers for him became sparse. In 1973 Frohriep played a supporting role in the film The Legend of Paul and Paula .

From 1973 onwards, Frohriep worked primarily for television in the GDR . From 1972 he investigated as a police lieutenant Huebner in the crime series Polizeiruf 110 . Initially the role was overshadowed by Captain Fuchs , played by Peter Borgelt , but over time it developed an independent profile. Between 1972 and 1991, Hübner solved a total of 64 cases.

In addition, Frohriep worked extensively as a voice actor and lent his voice to Charlton Heston ( Antonius and Cleopatra ) and Raimund Harmstorf in the DEFA dubbing of Der Seewolf - in the West German version Harmstorf was dubbed by Kurt E. Ludwig .

After the end of the GDR, Frohriep was no longer offered any roles. The actor got into a crisis and suffered from depression and alcohol problems . During this time his marriage to Kati Székely broke up . After the ARD decided to continue the police call 110 in 1993 , Frohriep returned to the screen one last time as Superintendent Huebner in the case of No Love, No Life (1994). Shortly after the end of the shooting, he died in Berlin. At his own request, his urn was buried with the family in the Baltic Sea near Warnemünde .

His written estate is in the archive of the Academy of Arts in Berlin.
