Biography

Kurt Von Ruffin (born 1901 in Munich, Germany; died 17 November 1996 in Berlin, Germany) was a German actor and opera singer who was imprisoned by the Nazis for being homosexual. Von Ruffin started his career as a singer. After finishing the filming of Schwarzwaldmädel in 1933, he was reported as a homosexual by another gay man who named him under torture and was subsequently imprisoned at Lichtenburg, a camp where many gay men were held, for two years. After nine months, Von Ruffin was released due to the intervention of renowned theatre director Heinz Hilpert. From 1941 until the end of World War II, he performed exclusively on stage.
