Peter Garden

Peter Garden was a popular German stage, television, film actor and singer, whose career ended abruptly in 1970 when it was revealed by some of his victims that he had worked in 1944 as a paid Gestapo informant in Salzburg, Austria. Garden, under his birth name Rothmayer, had already been investigated by a Berlin, Germany, state prosecutor between 1967 and 1970 for aiding and abetting murder, because two people he had denounced to the Gestapo had been sentenced to death, and executed.
