Richard Angst

Richard Angst (23 July 1905 – 24 July 1984) was a Swiss cinematographer who worked on more than ninety films during his career, most of them in Germany. Angst emerged as a leading photographer of mountain films during the silent era. He often worked with the director Arnold Fanck, and accompanied him in 1937 for The New Earth his troubled 1937 co-production with Japan.[1] While he worked on some Nazi propaganda films such as My Life for Ireland, many of the films he was employed on during the era were less political.[2]
