Hans-Jürgen Burkhard

Just thinking out loud with this really….. but, does anyone remember Hans-Jürgen Burkhard? I think he was German, maybe Swiss, dunno… worked a lot in Russia in the 80’s, the coup etc….. just wondering what became of him, I admired him a lot back in the day… well I still do of course but just haven’t seen anything since way back then.

I remember. Stern published a special edition of the russian pictures which I was too stupid to buy when it came out and I’ve been looking for it ever since.

So, he’s alive. Hmm, you know I think I actually have that special Stern edition amongst all my books in my mother’s garage back in Australia. His book ‘Jenseits von Kreml und Rotem Platz’ is proving hard to find… wondering if he did any other books.
