Born in Haifa in 1943 to a family of Jewish refugees from Austria, after World War II Oscar Bronner grew up among the ruins of war-torn Vienna. While his father embarked on a career that would see him become one of the greatest entertainment icons of Central Europe, his son became one of its most influential media entrepreneurs.
After having founded Austria's first independent news and business magazines (profil and trend) in the late Sixties, only to be forced to sell them to the powers-that-be in 1974, he came to New York City to start a new life as an artist.
After spending more than a decade leading the bohemian life of a sculptor and a painter in SoHo and East Hampton, he returned to Vienna in the Mid-Eighties to found a newspaper that set out to become the Austrian equivalent of the New York Times. The odds were against him yet again, but this time he managed to overcome all obstacles for good, despite everything.
