Biography: Georg Stefan Troller (born December 10, 1921 in Vienna, Austria) is an interviewer, director and screenwriter living in Paris. In 1938 Troller fled Austria from the Nazis, first to Czechoslovakia and from there on to France, where he was interned as an enemy alien. In 1941 he obtained a visa for the USA in Marseille. His parents were able to escape via Portugal. In the USA, he was drafted into military service in 1943 and participated in the liberation and documentation of the Dachau concentration camp on April 29, 1945, as well as the capture of Munich on May 1. He was stationed in Europe until 1946 and worked for the Rot-Weiß-Rot radio station operated by the US forces. Back in the USA, Troller studied English at the University of California and theater at Columbia University. In 1949, a Fulbright scholarship for the Sorbonne brought Troller to Paris, where he became a correspondent for RIAS. Troller rose to fame with his program Pariser Journal, which aired from 1962 to 1971 on ARD. In 1971 he launched his series of unconventional interviews Personenbeschreibung for ZDF. His screenplays, directed by Axel Corti, have all become cult films. Source: Article "Georg Stefan Troller" from Wikipedia in English, licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0.
