Raimund Hoghe was born in Wuppertal and began his career by writing portraits of outsiders and celebrities for the German weekly newspaper Die Zeit. These were later compiled in several books. From 1980 to 1990 he worked as dramaturg for Pina Bausch's Tanztheater Wuppertal which also became the subject matter for two more books. Since 1989 he has been working on his own theatre pieces for various dancers and actors. 1992 started his collaboration with the artist Luca Giacomo Schulte, who is till now his artistic collaborator. In 1994 he produced his first solo for himself, Meinwarts, which together with the subsequent Chambre separee (1997) and Another Dream (2000) made up a trilogy on the 20th century. Hoghe frequently works for television on projects such as Lebenstraume (1994) and Der Buckel, his 1997 hour-long self-portrait for WDR (West German Radio and Television). His books have been translated into several languages and he has presented his performances all over Europe, as well as in North and South America, Asia and Australia. He lives in Dusseldorf and has been awarded several prizes including the Deutscher Produzentenpreis fur Choreografie in 2001, the French Prix de la Critique in 2006 for Swan Lake, 4 Acts (in the category Best Foreign Piece).
