Life

Kleist studied graphic design at the Fachhochschule Münster. There he created his albums "Lovecraft," "Dorian" and as a thesis "Abenteur eines Weichenstellers". After finishing his degree he moved to Berlin. In 1996 at the International Comics Salon in Erlangen, he won the Max-and-Moritz-Prize for the best German-language Comic Album. Since 2003 he has been working together with Author Tobias O. Meißner on the comics series "Berlinoir," which is published with Edition 52. In September 2006, Kleist's biography on Elvis Presley was released with the title "Elvis." In 2008, Kleist learned Spanish in order to travel to Cuba, where he drew and sketched street scenes from Havana, which he compiled in the comics album "Havanna" in 2009. In 2011 his book "Der Boxer" (The Boxer) was released, which tells the story of Jewish Boxer Harry Haft. Kleist's latest book about the Somali runner Samia Yusuf Omar was published in 2015 under the title "Der Traum von Olympia" (The Dream of Olympia).
