Life
Mano Zahl-Teschenbruck came from the then Austro-Hungarian province of Bukowina in today's Romania and came to Vienna through stays in Hungary . Digit-Teschenbruck first worked as a painter. In addition, he studied several science courses up to a doctorate and subsequently worked as a chemist, engineer and senior railway official (Ministerialrat in the Ministry of Railways).
At the beginning of the 1920s, he briefly tried his hand as a film director. His wife, the silent film actress Carmen Cartellieri , who also made these films with her own production company, played the leading roles in his mostly dramatic to melodramatic stories .
After only three years behind the camera, he ended his existence as a director and concentrated on the further development of photo processes (for example X-ray color photography). In 1926, together with the chemist Prof. Ludwig Vanino (1861–1944) from the Bavarian Academy of Sciences , he developed a method of reproduction using phosphorus-containing substances. He also acquired several photographic patents in the early 1930s.
