Biography

He became known through the television series Klimbim, in which he was not only responsible for the often imaginative outfit of the actors, but also had many silent appearances. From season two onwards he played "the man falling off the chair". 1980-1980 Helmut was a regular as Onkel Otto in the Series Susi. The Museum of Applied Arts in Cologne dedicated a show to him in 1994 and the German Film Museum in Frankfurt am Main showed some of his costume designs in 1999/2000. In recent years he has only worked as a photographer and presented black and white photographs from the 1990s in the Cologne City Museum.
