Early life
Philipp Hochmair grew up in Vienna, Austria, where he discovered his passion for literature, film and theater. His mother is a physician who was frequently the on-call doctor for theaters. Therefore he experienced theater and opera performances from an early age.
After graduating from high school, he studied acting at the famous Max Reinhardt Seminar in Vienna and at the Conservatoire national supérieur d'art dramatique in Paris. Chosen by Golden Globe Awards Winner Klaus Maria Brandauer to join his master class, he graduaded from acting school after 4 years. Brandauer and Hochmair subsequently became friends after starring together as father and son in the Alzheimer drama The Extinction (Die Auslöschung) by Nikolaus Leytner in 2012[1][2]

In the third season of Charité (TV series) (German-Netflix-Production, 2020), Hochmair stars as Professor Otto Prokop, an Austrian forensic pathologist who was internationally recognized for his influence on forensic medicine and research policy during German Democratic Republic.[10]

This every exceptional performance has attracted lots of attention, because Hochmair rocks this one man show by taking on more than 20 roles by himself. With his band, he has also set ballads by Friedrich Schiller to music in a rock style, which he thereby wants to bring to life in a new way.[20]
