Tom Kummer

Tom Kummer, born in 1961 in Bern, Switzerland, was once a celebrated journalist known for his provocative and subjective writing style. In the 1990s, he gained notoriety as a Hollywood reporter, only to face a scandal in 2000 when it was revealed that he fabricated interviews with celebrities. This scandal led to his fall from grace in the journalism world. Following a series of personal and professional setbacks, Kummer has turned to fiction writing, exploring themes of masculinity and identity in his recent works, including his latest novel, 'Freiwürfe mit einem Diktator,' which reflects his ongoing quest for redemption and reinvention.
