Klaus Huhn

Klaus Huhn (24 February 1928 – 20 January 2017) was a German sports journalist, writer and 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 concentrated on the great names from the sporting history of the German Democratic Republic (GDR), and wrote, more recently, largely for the "GDR nostalgia" readership.

He published several books about the cycling legend Gustav-Adolf Schur, and was employed as the ghostwriter for Schur's autobiography. The book's objectivity was questioned by one reviewer who described it as "shameless propaganda". Provided by Wikipedia
