Swiss Movements: An American Dream / The autobiography of Mr. Frick

Thomas Foeldi,Werner Groebli

The till now unpublished autobiography of Mr. Frick, written by Werner Groebli (April 21, 1915 - April 14, 2008) in the 1980s, was left in the original state for the present book. Only the pictures were carefully refreshed and some square brackets were added by me to supply more information, when needed. All underlined words are in German. After Werner Groebli’s retirement in 1980, it was always his greatest wish to get The autobiography of Mr. Frick published. Even his friend Sparky (Charles M. Schulz) was witness to this desire and sent him a letter in 1987 concerning the last Chapter 13, which he appreciated being part of. Therefore this book is in honor of Werner Groebli’s 101st birthday, to keep his extraordinary career of more than forty years in the Ice Follies, as an outstandingly funny ice comedian in our lasting memory. Our little native Switzerland certainly was not ready for the huge arena of America, within which to display his remarkable talent, with which Mr. Frick was so evidently blessed. I am glad to finally see the publishing of this entertaining book, which will give a profound overview of Mr. Frick’s life as one of the leading ice comedians of the world.
