Who was Martin Kosleck?
Martin Kosleck was a German film actor. Like many other German actors, he fled when the Nazis came to power.

While in the United States, he would appear in more than 80 films and television shows in a 46-year span. His icy demeanor and piercing stare on screen made him a popular choice to play Nazi villains. He portrayed Joseph Goebbels, Adolf Hitler's propaganda minister, five times, and also appeared as an SS trooper and a concentration camp officer.
