He was one of the most productive representatives of literary cabaret in Germany. However, Hanns Dieter Hüsch also made an impact outside the comedy scene, for example as a writer, actor, songwriter, voice actor, and radio host. He was born on May 6, 1925, in Moers. There, his 100th birthday is being celebrated with a "Hüsch100-Year." Throughout the year, over 30 events are taking place in honor of the master of small arts, who passed away in 2005.
