A well-known bearer of this name is the character Kurt Wallander from the 'Wallander' series of books by Henning Mankell about a Swedish detective living in Ystad, Sweden (shown in both the British 'Wallander' series with Kenneth Branagh and the Swedish one with Krister Henriksson) originally starting his career in Malmö (as shown in the 'Young Wallander' TV series starring Adam Palsson)
Also, the painter Kurt Schwitters (1887-1948), chemist Kurt Alder (1902-1958), actor Kurt McKinney, Paralympian Kurt Fearnley, actor Kurt Fuller (known for many parts including angel Zachariah in the TV show Supernatural, and an appearance on 'Grey's Anatomy' as a patient who was severely constipated), basketball star Kurt Thomas, and race car driver Kurt Busch.
