Max Frisch
Died in 1991
Max Frisch was born on 15 May 1911 in Zurich, the son of an architect. He began studying German literature at the university of his city, broke off, then studied architecture at the Polytechnic from 1936 to 1940. He opened his own office in 1942, after winning the competition for a municipal swimming pool in Zurich, and stopped practising in 1955 to devote himself to writing. His diaries, published in his lifetime, hold a central place in his work. He lived for a few years with Ingeborg Bachmann, partly in Rome, and died in Zurich on 4 April 1991.
