Ingo Mogendorf

Ingo Mogendorf (born 1940) is a German-born British actor, typically playing handsome and congenial German officers. He is best remembered as the Red Baron in a dogfight against Rock Hudson in Blake Edwards' Darling Lili. He worked as a male model in London in the 1970s.[1]

Life

Mogendorf was born in Germany on 2 December 1940. His exact birthplace is unclear but he certainly lived in Wuppertal in West Germany prior to coming to Britain in 1968. Based in London he appears to primarily have been employed as a model but with frequent acting roles both in film and television. He was invariably cast as the handsome and genial German and often used to contrast with more Nazi-style counterparts.[2]

Mogendorf retired from acting in 1983/84 and moved to Puerto Banus near Marbella on the south coast of Spain, where he invested in a night-club.
