Klaus Huhn (born 24 February 1928〔) is a sports journalist and writer, and a former sports administrator. Huhn worked for the East German mass-market daily newspaper, ''Neues Deutschland'', and was chairman of the Sports Journalists Sub-Association within that country's important Union of Journalists. As a writer he concentrates on the great names from the German Democratic Republic (GDR)'s sporting history, and writes largely for the "GDR nostalgia" readership.〔(''Journalist Klaus Huhn war Stasi-Spitzel.'' ) In: ''Focus Magazin.'' Nr. 45 (1995), 6. November 1995.〕 He has written several books about the cycling legend Gustav-Adolf Schur, and was employed as the ghost writer for Schur's autobiography. The book's objectivity was questioned by one reviewer who described it as "shameless propaganda".〔 ==Life== Huhn was born into a Communist family, in Berlin, where his father was a clerical worker. Huhn attended secondary school in Berlin and in Saalfeld.〔 In 1946 he joined the ''Deutsche Volkszeitung'', the central organ of the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) in the Soviet occupation zone. In 1954 he took a correspondence course in journalism at the Karl Marx University in Leipzig and in 1983 he was at the German College of Physical Culture, also in Leipzig, with a doctorate in pedagogy. In 1995 it was revealed, by the German weekly magazine ''Focus'' that Kuhn had worked for the secret police the Stasi.〔 Kuhn had joined the organisation in 1960 as an "unofficial employee" (''Inoffizieller Mitarbeiter''), taking the code name "Heinz Mohr". He since claims "not to remember having signed anything".〔 Kuhn received gifts, on his 60th birthday, for his work with the Stasi.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Klaus Huhn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
