Heinz von Lichberg

He reported from Graf Zeppelin during its record-breaking flight around the world in 1929, earning a name as a foreign correspondent.

Lichberg was mostly forgotten, until literary scholar Michael Maar came across his "Lolita" short story and argued that Nabokov had derived his story from Lichberg's work in several articles and a 2005 book.
