Otto SANDER
actor and narrator

Born in 1941, Sander grew up in Kassel, where he graduated in 1961 from the Friedrichgymnasium. After leaving school he spent his military service as a navy reserve officer and then studied theatre science, history of art and philosophy. In 1965 he made his acting debut at the Düsseldorfer chamber plays. After his first film work in the same year he abandoned his studies in 1967, and went to Munich to become a full‐time actor.

His career is closely connected with the Schaubühne theatre in Berlin under the direction of Peter Stein. Because of his warm, strong voice, which earned him the surname 'The Voice' (the English term is used), he has been used frequently as narrator for television documentaries, and numerous talking books in the 1990s.

Among his best‐known film roles are the angel Cassiel in 'Wings of Desire' and its sequel 'Faraway, So Close!' by Wim Wenders, and a U‐boat commander, Kapitänleutnant Philipp Thomsen, in Wolfgang Petersen's 'Das Boot'.
