Dieter Nuhr

A German comedian, cabaret artist, and former visual artist, Dieter Nuhr began hitting the stages in Germany in 1987, and went professional -- that is to say, full-time, eschewing his work as the aforementioned visual artist -- in 1992. He released his first album, Nuhr am Nörgeln, in 1994, and in addition to a number of television appearances, made quite a name for himself as a wiseacre-style comedian. Nuhr Weiter So followed in 1996, Nuhr Nach Vorn in 1998, www.nuhr.de in 2000, www.nuhr.de/2 in 2002, and Ich Bin's Nuhr in 2004. All of his album titles have been wordplays (Nuhr being a play on "nur," which means "just" or "only" auf Deutsch), including his 2007 release Nuhr die Wahrheit. ~ Chris True, Rovi
