Werner Herzog Fast Facts:

Worked nights as a welder in a steel factory in order to finance his first film, 1962 short Herakles.
Traveled from Germany to attend the University of Pittsburgh, but quit after just three days; Herzog subsequently lost the Fullbright scholarship on which he was attending, as well as his visa.
Along with Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Wim Wenders and Volker Schlondorff, was one of the leading figures in the German cinema's New Wave of the late '60s and '70s.
Breakthrough film was 1972 historical drama Aguirre, the Wrath of God, notable for its exotic locations and stunning landscapes captured under arduous circumstances, both Herzog trademarks.
Had a love/hate relationship with Polish actor Klaus Kinski, whom he directed in five films and made a documentary about titled My Best Fiend (1999).
Appeared in Les Blank's documentary Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe (1980), in which he did as the title describes in order to settle a bet with filmmaker Errol Morris.
Has staged several operas around the world.
