Herbert Grönemeyer

Herbert Arthur Wiglev Clamor Grönemeyer (born April 12, 1956 in Göttingen) is a German musician and actor and is very popular in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. He starred as war correspondent Lieutenant Werner in Wolfgang Petersen's movie Das Boot, but later concentrated on his musical career. His fifth album 4630 Bochum was the best-selling German language record of the eighties. In 2002 he achieved his first number one single with "Mensch" from the album of the same name, which was strongly influenced by the 1998 deaths of his wife and brother Wilhelm. His other brother Dietrich is a distinguished professor of medicine.
