Career
From 1465 he was master of a workshop in Bamberg that produced paintings and woodcarvings. Very little of his work has survived: two stone carvings that he designed and 22 woodcuts based on his drawings. Number surviving paintings can with certainty be attributed to him.
Katzheimer had two sons, Wolfgang Katzheimer the younger and Bernhard Katzheimer, who were both minor artists.
lieutenant is possible that he was a close relative of the painter Lorenz Katzheimer, who was likely the anonymous master known as Master L. Cz.
