Biography,Early and private lifeAs son of refugees who fled from South Moravia (now Czech Republic) in 1945, Schmidt spent his youth in Swabian Nurtingen, where he went to grammar school. Due to his strict Catholic upbringing he devoted time to the Roman Catholic church, serving as choirmaster and playing the organ.At the age of 21, Schmidt went to Stuttgart to attend drama school for three years. After that, he gained on-stage experience at Stadtische Buhne (Municipal Stage) in Augsburg. His first role was that of the 2nd Mamaluke in Lessings Nathan the Wise. In 1984, Harald Schmidt became a lyricist for the cabaret Kom(m)odchen in Dusseldorf and in 1986, was honoured as Best Newcomer cabaret artist and toured through Germany with his own show.In October 2005, his daughter Amelie was born. Harald Schmidt resides in Cologne with his partner Ellen Hantsch, a school teacher, and five children, the eldest being from a former relationship. Little is known about the children and their two mothers as Schmidt shields them from the public. In interviews he hardly talks about them.Later artistic careerBefore long, TV noticed the talented young comedian and in 1988 Schmidt began to host his first TV show, MAZ ab. This was followed by shows like Psst! and Schmidteinander, but the biggest boost to his career occurred in 1992, when he started hosting the popular Saturday night show, Verstehen Sie Spa?? (a variation of Candid Camera). Schmidt was awarded Germanys most important TV award, Adolf-Grimme-Preis, which would be followed by many others. Just one year later, he was honoured as the Entertainer of the year and awarded the famous Bambi award and the Golden Camera.In 2004, Schmidt toured through Germany with a live comedy show, featuring his former late night show sidekick Manuel Andrack. Schmidt is best known for his late-night shows:Harald Schmidt and Manuel Andrack live in KarlsruheHarald Schmidt Show (Sat.1)In 1995 Schmidt changed from the publicly funded TV station ARD to the privately owned German television network Sat.1 in order to host a late night show comparable to Late Night with Conan OBrien or Late Night with David Letterman. The show, named Die Harald Schmidt Show, features stand-up comedy as well as famous national and international guests. From June 30, 2003 the show was broadcast five days a week, including Monday evening. On December 8, 2003, Schmidt suddenly announced the end of the show, following a change of management of Sat.1. The last show was aired on December 23, 2003. The following suspension of the TV format lasted until 2011, when the show returned to Sat.1.Harald Schmidt (ARD)In 2004 Schmidt began a second run with a new show named Harald Schmidt on publicly funded ARD, where he had begun his television career 16 years earlier. The show no longer featured celebrity interviews but dealt even more with the discussion of current events in a rather freely associative manner. Manuel Andrack returned as his sidekick.On his first show after the break Schmidt appeared with long hair and a full beard, making fun of his long absence from the public. After summer break in 2005 the celebrity guest segment was reintroduced.Schmidt & Pocher (ARD)Late in 2007, Manuel Andrack was replaced by comedian Oliver Pocher, who had a more active part than his predecessor, and some other elements changed as well. The broadcasts title was changed to Schmidt & Pocher, trying to attract a younger audience. Oliver Pocher was less educated and less intellectual, a fact that caused some criticism among Harald Schmidts core audience and broadsheet newspaper comments in Germany.Harald Schmidt (ARD)After termination of Schmidt & Pocher, he again hosted the show under its former title Harald Schmidt, this time without any sidekick.Relaunch of the Harald Schmidt Show (Sat.1 and then Sky)On September 15, 2011 Schmidt returned to his former network Sat.1 picking up its former name of Die Harald Schmidt Show again. However, Sat.1 cancelled the show after one season due to low ratings. Starting September 4, 2012, new episodes were shown on Sky Hits HD and Sky Atlantic HD, two channels of the German Pay-TV network Sky Deutschland. Schmidt hosted his very last show on March 13, 2014. He announced not to return to TV. SKY published the last show on YouTube.Concept and personalitiesThe self-proclaimed hypochondriac became popular for his cynical jokes, cruel remarks and wry intellectual wit. (Even though he is obsessed with health he was able to lampoon this weak spot in a self ironic TV commercial for a medicine curing colds.) Schmidt models himself after people like Johnny Carson and Conan OBrien, but adds factors and qualities to his show himself.He engaged in long, seemingly boring conversations with his supervising producer Manuel Andrack (known as chief dramatic adviser), who sat at a desk next to Schmidts until 2005, and, like Letterman, also included his staff in the show, for instance, his cue card girl Suzana Novinscak and his band leader Helmut Zerlett. (Schmidt celebrated the return of French woman Nathalie Licard in his ARD era (like Zerlett she is still part of Schmidts team). In Schmidts original Harald Schmidt Show (1995–2003), Licard was involved in the goings-on in front of the audience too.
