Apparently, a big television personality in Germany, and everyone seemed interested in seeing him and getting his signature. I saw him at the Oper für alle that he hosted; 4 years ago I was in various newspapers, videos and even the Staatsoper anniversary book because I was sitting behind him when he hosted the outdoor opera that year, too.
Nice catch! Yes, I think he is in television now. During my high school time he was on radio and I listened to him every day!

@amandal@seanna@joemuli -- I'm trying to be braver about that quick capture of candids but it's so hit and miss so get results that don't look blurred! Thanks for your comments. @irisn -- really?? You know who he is? ALL the Germans do, but I didn't. Of course, I have a reputation for being completely unaware on issues of pop culture.
yeah, this was before ipods and CDs and everybody listened to the radio for music and everything else. I used to have a "walkman" where I listened on tapes whatever I recorded from the radio. T. Gottschalk was definitely featured!
(boy am I dated now, but then again, that wasn't that long ago...)
Wow, you get to see most amazing things in Germany! Nice portrait for a quick snap! It almost look like a picture from some kind of glossy magazine where he wold like to appear approachable and informal.
