Arthur R.G. Solmssen (born September 29, 1928 in New York City[1] – April 23, 2018, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania[2]) was an American lawyer and novelist.

History

Arthur R.G. Solmssen spent his early childhood in Berlin, and his adolescence and later youth in the suburbs of Philadelphia.[1] He studied at Harvard University, where he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1950, and the University of Pennsylvania, where he completed his law degree in 1953.[1] He was called to the Pennsylvania Bar in 1953 and commenced working as a lawyer in Philadelphia. His professional affiliation is Of Counsel to Saul Ewing LLP.[3]

Solmssen has published several novels, the most famous of which is A Princess in Berlin (1980). Solmssen received the Athenaeum Literary Award for the novel.[4] A Princess in Berlin is a portrait of the early Weimar Republic, and has been the subject of multiple translations.[5] Solmssen's works are catalogued by the German National Library, among others.[6]

The Comfort Letter, Solmssen's 1975 novel concerning ethics and assurances in public offerings, has been the subject of contemporary academic analysis in law.[7]

Solmssen is a Fellow of the Salzburg Global Seminar, with which he maintains an active association.[8]

He recently finished a book about German Luftwaffe pilot and general officer Ernst Udet.

Solmssen has three sons, Peter York Solmssen, Kurt A. Solmssen, and A.R.G. Solmssen Junior.
