Wolfgang Amerbacher
Wolfgang "Wolf" Amerbacher (born November 2, 1921 in Karlsruhe , † 1971 ) was a German actor , radio play and voice actor .
Life
Wolf Amerbacher received his artistic training at the state art academy in his hometown and also made his stage debut in Karlsruhe in 1951. The ARD radio play database lists him for the first time in 1952 with a small role in a radio play, then again in 1961. Regular work as an actor and speaker was only documented from the mid-1960s until his death, and his work in dubbing was particularly extensive . In 1970 he starred in the play The money is on the bank of Curth Flatow , directed by Erik Odes at the Kleine Komödie in Munich.
Amerbacher made his comrade debut in 1966 in an episode of the ARD pre-evening series Förster Horn , after which he sporadically took on other tasks for television, for example in the series Die Firma Hesselbach or Das Kriminalmuseum .
Posthumous popularity finally brought him the series Private Detective Frank Kross , in which he played the character of Commissioner Eberle in several episodes .
In addition to a number of radio plays, Amerbacher had been a busy voice actor with numerous speaking roles since the mid-1960s. He repeatedly lent his voice to foreign colleagues in the series Bonanza and Tennis Rackets and Cannons , and in feature films he was often the German voice of the American actor Jason Wingreen . Amerbacher also synchronized German colleagues several times.
Two days after completing the filming of the series Private Detective Frank Kross , Wolfgang Amerbacher voluntarily passed away.
