Jürgen Schreiber

Jürgen Schreiber (30 January 1947 – 21 February 2022) was a German investigative journalist and author based in Berlin. He was a regular contributor to Berlin's daily newspaper Der Tagesspiegel on matters concerning Germany's past in World War II and in the fine arts. Schreiber's (non-official) biography in 2005 of the German painter Gerhard Richter, gained much recognition when he exposed the fact that Richter's own aunt was murdered by Richter's late father-in-law, a doctor in the SS.
