Born in 1983 in Düsseldorf, Germany, he began acting as a child at the Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus. Between 1991 and 1998, he collaborated with directors including W. Minks, W. Schroeter, J. Lux, F.-X. Kroetz, and D. Altenbeck, playing the lead role of "John" in David Mamet's "Das Kryptogram." Starting in 2002, he pursued a master's degree in media and cultural studies at Heinrich Heine University, produced short films, and founded Düsseldorf's first film festival. After completing his bachelor's thesis on Wong Kar-Wai and Gilles Deleuze in 2006, he moved to New York City, working as a production assistant on Michael Haneke's feature film "Funny Games U.S." and, a year later, on Wong Kar-Wai's "My Blueberry Nights." From 2008 to 2010, he studied theatre direction at the Academy of Performing Arts Baden-Württemberg in Ludwigsburg, Germany, under Luk Perceval, who oversaw actor and director training. Since 2010, he has been studying acting for stage and camera at the same institution. That year, he interned on Robert Wilson's "Kata Kabanova" in Prague, Czech Republic, and traveled to Vienna, Austria, to perform in "Der Jäger Gracchus," an adaptation of Kafka's short story, and in the contemporary opera "Flaschenpost" by Georges Aperghis, both directed by Helga Utz. As a theatre director, he created a performance at the State Gallery Stuttgart to mark the 100th anniversary of the futurist manifesto. He directed the short film "Reduktion 22" and the piece "Deine Hoffnungen mein Herz wie Furien," based on Friedrich Schiller's "Kabale und Liebe." Additionally, he staged a performance at the State Theatre Stuttgart commemorating the tragic and enigmatic death of Pier Paolo Pasolini. As an actor, he has participated in various short films and plays at the Ludwigsburg academy. His development was notably influenced by workshops led by Luk Perceval, Hilde Stark, Ted Stoffer, and Gennadij Bogdanov. He is a member of two independent theatre groups: "Wunschmaschinen" and "Shane Drinion." Since 2012, Benjamin-Lew Klon has been a guest actor at the Thalia Theater in Hamburg. He is fluent in German, English, and Polish.
