UberAribert Wascher (Source: wikipedia):
Aribert Wascher (* 1. December 1895 in Flensburg; † 14. December 1961 in Berlin; actually Robert Ernst Wilhelm Wascher) was a German writer, stage and film actor.
Life: After his acting training, Aribert Wascher began his theater career in Magdeburg in 1915 and was then engaged in Cologne. From 1919 onwards he worked on various Berlin stages. He made his debut in 1919 at the Small Theater, moved to the Deutsches Theater in 1920 and, via the Lustspielhaus, the Volksbühne and the Barnowsky Theaters, finally came to the State Theater in 1926, where he worked as an actor until the end of the war.
In 1928, Wascher was involved in founding the Larifari cabaret in Berlin, initiated by the actress and cabaret artist Rosa Valetti and the musician and lyricist Erich Einegg. In 1932 he took part in the Kohlkopp cabaret founded by Valeska Gert, also in Berlin. He was from approx. In 1926, she was in a relationship with Valeska Gert for around ten years.
Immediately after the end of the war he played the role of Jupiter in Orpheus in the Underworld at the Komische Oper in Berlin. He played again at the Deutsches Theater from 1945 to 1949, then from 1950 at the Schlosspark Theater and from 1951 also at the Schillertheater.
Parallel to his stage work, Wascher also made his film debut, first playing a role in Gerhard Lamprecht's silent film The Cemetery of the Living in 1921, followed by other silent film productions that made him a popular supporting actor. With the introduction of sound films and his participation in film classics such as Amphitryon - Happiness Comes from the Clouds (1935), he later achieved his final breakthrough. Wascher was also a sought-after film actor during the war years and was placed on the God-Given list by the Reich Ministry for Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. He mostly played dark, inscrutable characters.
In addition to his stage and film work, Wascher also worked as a writer who, in addition to cheerful stories and poems (six volumes), also wrote the stage plays Gods among themselves and The tender wife. The one with the Federal Cross of Merit 1st Class-awarded Wascher was married to the actress Gudrun Genest since 1954. Their daughter Corinna, who comes from a previous relationship with Rudolf Diels, also became an actress.
Aribert Wascher has a son from another connection, also named Aribert Wascher.
Wascher had been confined to a wheelchair since 1955 and therefore had to give up acting. He was buried in the Dahlem cemetery.

Quotes
“In any case, Aribert Wascher is also one of the few actors who did not follow the fashion introduced by [Max] Reinhardt of defining an actor to one note, to one type [sic]. Sometimes he plays a comical role and sometimes a very serious one - if his successes were anything to go by, he would have to be in the front row. But because you can’t classify it, it never really gets through.”
