The view from his family’s Apartment on the 8th floor at the Ostbahnhof: on the left towards Kreuzberg to the Berlin Wall; on the right to Friedrichshain Berg, heaped up from rubble of World War II. As a young adult, Schroder trained in marketing and worked for over 20-years at Der Welt, a large daily newspaper. Today, he’s a manager in the finance department at the University of Europe for Applied Sciences, a private university, where one can earn a Bachelor or Master’s degree in photography.
