  • Otto Wolff was born in Stockholm, Sweden in the November of 1890 to Hendrik and Sofia Wolff. Hendrik was a well-respected man in the community, taking care of a successful apothecary in the city and Sofia was content on just keeping up the household. The family was well off financially and Hendrik could even hire a few helpers into his store. Five year after Otto's birth his sister Anneke was born. Both of the children had dark hair and blue eyes and were brought up in a strict manner by their father. The Wolff-family had a military background that reached back to distant wars, the family originating from Germany. Otto's mother had also come from Germany, but had lived in Sweden for thirteen years before meeting her husband. This was mainly the reason why Hendrik and Sofia had eventually ended up together and frankly, Hendrik would have not even thought of marrying someone who was not of German origins. Otto and Anneke were both very calm and quiet children, the reason for this being most likely their very harsh father. Sofia was also scared of her husband, so she stayed humble and just went along with whatever Hendrik did or said. Neither one of the children was spared from the violent hand of their father and the harsh discipline made both of them careful even in school. In 1901 Hendrik received a tempting job offer from Germany and he sold his apothecary, took along his family and moved to München to start a bigger business, still staying in the field of medicine but also making some investments elsewhere. Otto's most influential time was thus spent in München, where things never seemed to cease from happening. He studied hard and in his free time practiced boxing and playing piano: boxing because of his father and piano because his mother insisted upon it. He became quite adept both in school and at sports, making even his demanding father proud of his son. A remainder from Otto's boxing days was a broken nose that never quite healed right, leaving Otto with a slightly crooked nose. Otto started studying to become a pharmacist as per the wishes of his father, although he had never found the field very interesting.
