- Biography
- H. A. Condell was a stage and costume designer in Germany and in the United States. He received his early training under the notable Max Reinhardt and his early work was under the auspices of the Berlin Civic Opera and the non-Aryan theater (also known as the Jewish Kulterbund), of which he was co-founder. Condell emigrated to the United States in 1938. His first major production after emigrating was SAINT JOAN directed by Erwin Piscator and starring Luise Rainer. In 1944 he began his affiliation with the New York City Opera which continued until his death in 1951. Besides working as a designer, Condell also taught stage design at the Dramatic Workshop and the Technical Institute where he was art director under Erwin Piscator.
