Olaf Bach(1892-1963)

  • Actor
IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Born in 1892, Olaf Bach always dreamed of theater, even while he was studying building as a youth. And by dint of passion and hard work, he managed to land small parts first and then fleshier ones in all kinds of works (tragedies by Shakespeare, Franz Wedekind's "Büchse der Pandora", ...) From then on, he managed to wholly satisfy his passion, treading the boards uninterruptedly until the end of his life, in modern or classic plays and even in an operetta ("Die Frau ohne Kuss"). He also wrote two plays, "Deutsche Helden" and "Menschen von der Seite". Olaf Bach also participated in films, the first time in 1921 and 1922 and then from 1933 to 1943, but in generally secondary roles. After the war, he continued with his theater career but gave up acting in the movies. Olaf Bach died in 1963.
