In 1909 he started what was to become a 20-year partnership with Franz Arnold, with whom he wrote more than 20 plays, mainly farces and operettas. Their first hit play was ''The Spanish Fly'' in 1913. They went on to become one of the leading playwriting teams in Weimar Germany.
In 1917 he became the director of the Münchner Volkstheater in Munich, whilst continuing his writing partnership with Franz Arnold at Starnberg. He remained in Munich until his death in 1929. Provided by Wikipedia
