Helmut Bez

Helmut Bez (28 August 1930 – 7 August 2019) was a German writer primarily known as a playwright (for theatre, radio, and television), librettist, and screenwriter. He was born in Sondershausen and spent the first 40 years of his career in East Germany. In 1981, Hans Fabian wrote that his plays at the Deutsches Theater "rival the best of those performed in the West and give promise of a vigorous decade to come." Provided by Wikipedia
