Biography

Von Ortloff is most famous for Eisenbahn-Romantik, a television programme about historical rail travel (specifically steam engines in Germany, Switzerland and Austria) produced by the television company SWR.

After the death of his father in 1957 he spent his childhood with his grandmother in Dresden. In 1960 he moved to live with his mother in West Germany, near to Heilbronn. He attended the school Justinus-Kerner-Gymnasium in Weinsberg.

From 1972 to 1975 von Ortloff studied at the Fachhochschule für Druck in Stuttgart as an industrial engineer. Following this, he studied Sociology, Political Science and Management Economics at the University of Stuttgart, which he completed in 1984.

In 1977 he started working with the Süddeutschen Rundfunk broadcaster, and in 1991 the series Eisenbahn-Romantik first aired, which von Ortloff has presented since.
