Life

Hübner, the son of a Privy Councilor, intended to dedicate himself to the stage while he was still studying at university. He enjoyed the lessons of the actor Julius Braunhofer and entered the stage for the first time on July 7, 1855 as "Francis" in orphan from Lockwood . After various small engagements in Erfurt, Augsburg, Salzburg, Pressburg, Pest, Baden near Vienna, etc., he came to Berlin in 1859, where he was signed up as the first lover for the Viktoriatheater. He stayed there for a year, then took part in the Stadttheater in Cologne from 1860 to 1861 and on May 4, 1861 he entered the Hamburg Thaliatheater ("Bolz" in journalists ) as a member .

In 1862 he received an application to the Hofburgtheater . He made guest appearances there as “Bolz”, “Schiller” and “Fabrikant”, to the extent of unanimous applause. But he had to refuse the offered engagement, as Chéri Maurice did not release him for the time being and knew how to tie him to his stage under tempting conditions. The artist, who also dealt with scientific work and even obtained his doctorate in philosophy in 1872, was one of the main adornments of this stage until he left the Thaliateater. In 1877 he began to be ailing and died at the age of 39 in his hometown.

The artist married on June 15, 1868 with his colleague Clara Zitt (1841–1876).
