Ludwig Geyer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ludwig Geyer was a German actor, playwright and painter. He was the stepfather of composer Richard Wagner, whose biological father had died some five months after his birth. In his later years Wagner found some letters that led him to speculate that Geyer might have been his biological father, and that Geyer was Jewish.[1] Geyer's relation to Wagner was one of several controversies surrounding the composer during his lifetime and afterward.
