I don't remember this actor or his role on HH but it's fascinating to ponder his ability to portray a Nazi POW on a comedy show while being a survivor of a Nazi Jewish concentration camp. Must have messed with his head.
Shultz was regularly bribed with his culinary flair...

Damn. Here in MN Low are kinda royalty, though they frequently avoided publicity. There are a couple of NPR interviews that I believe are linked in SFW's post.
I honestly thought there was a UK-based Low that did shoegazey noise, and a US-based Low that did some more accessible pop songs.

Lewis rose to prominence in the ‘70s when he created LEO, his Live Electronic Orchestra. Designed in 1974 and finally completed three years later, this complex project involved Lewis linking multiple synths together so that he could control them simultaneously for live performances - and all without the aid of MIDI, which had yet to be invented.
Lewis also worked with Roland founder Ikutaro Kakehashi on multiple rhythm machines, including the CR-78 and the iconic TR-808. Kakehashi became friends with Lewis after he discovered that he’d modified the FR-2L, one of the rhythm machines made by his previous company, Ace Tone, wiring it through his organ’s expression pedal to accent the percussion.
