Born in Ambach (near Munich) in Germany to the late Wilhelm Emanuel Süskind, a journalist and writer on language, Patrick Süskind studied medieval and modern history at the universities of Munich and Aix-en-Provence. It has been said that he originally aspired to be a concert pianist but had some problem with his hands. Süskind began his writing career as a playwright. His first play (with international success), The Double Bass (Der Kontrabass) was performed in Germany, Switzerland, Scotland, London, and New York. Perfume: The Story of a Murderer has been adapted for the screen. Süskind lives reclusively in Munich, Paris, and Montolieu, France. He has refused awards for his writing, and he is known to never grant interviews.
