He was born in Odense, Denmark, and attended Odense Theatrical School in 1958, and graduated from The Royal Theater of Denmark's Theatrical School in 1962. Since 1971, he has been the manager of several theatres in Copenhagen.

Grunwald had his debut in En blandt mange in 1961.

He played one of the lead roles in the Olsen Gang movies, as Benny, along with Ove Sprogøe and Poul Bundgaard.
