SRF: Peter Voegeli becomes correspondent in Berlin
The editorial board of Radio SRF has appointed Peter Voegeli as the new Germany correspondent. He will take over from Casper Selg in Berlin in summer 2015, when he retires.
Peter Voegeli, soon to be 51, studied history, international law and modern German literature in Zurich and obtained his doctorate in 1992. He began his journalistic career at Radio Z and then moved to Germany in 1995, first to Bonn and then to Berlin, mainly for the "St. Galler Tagblatt" and the "Bund". During his time as a newspaper correspondent in Berlin, Voegeli also worked as a freelancer and deputy radio correspondent for SRF. He then joined the editorial team permanently in 2005 and, after an introductory period in the Bern studio, began working as a radio correspondent in Washington. Peter Voegeli has been the presenter of "Echo der Zeit" since spring 2012. Martin Durrer, Editorial Director International: "Peter Voegeli brings with him a wealth of journalistic experience and excellent knowledge of the country and people in Germany. We are looking forward to working with him in his new role."
