artists with Italian and French roots. His grandmother, classical singer Martha Ruhl, played a pivotal
role in nurturing his early interest in music.
At the age of six, Michael displayed remarkable talent by winning first prize at a local piano
competition with his rendition and variations of a Beethoven Sonata. His journey into the world of
music continued as he became a part of the opera at the Hesse State Theatre, where he sang the boy
soprano part of Harry Wood in Benjamin Britten's opera "Albert Herring" from 1976 to 1977. As an
eight-year-old, Michael began studying piano and composition at the Richard Meissner
Conservatory. During his teenage years, he expanded his artistic horizons by studying acting and
speech at a local acting school.
In 1988, he made a significant move to the United States, where he later became a United States
Citizen. Over the course of 25 years, he worked as a music producer, composer, actor, and singer,

at the 2015 Frankfurt International Bookfair in its German version, with an English version currently in
the works.
