Heinrich Bandlow (born 14 April 1855 in Tribsees; died 25 August 1933 in Greifswald) was a Pomeranian author, writing in Standard as well as in Low German. For his Low German works he is known as "Pomeranian Reuter", which is a reference to his Mecklenburgian counterpart, Fritz Reuter.
Heinrich Bandlow was born on 14 April 1855 in Tribsees. From 1872 to 1875, he was a student at the Franzburg college, where he became a teacher. From 1875 to 1877 he taught at the Richtenberg school before he returned to Tribsees, where he worked at the local school from 1877 until 1907. After a two years special education in Berlin, he moved to Greifswald with his family where he worked as an art teacher until he retired in 1916. Bandlow married his wife in 1879, and with her he had six children. Tribsees made Bandlow a "citizen of honor".
Bandlow wrote poems, fairy tales, lyrics and fiction since he was a young man. Because of his low salaries as a teacher and his growing family, he was in constant need of money. His first publications were in paper columns. Later, 34 books of Bandlow were published.
