Description:
Writer, art historian, and Holocaust survivor Suzanne Loebl, whose life paralleled much of the events revisited in Plunder and Survival, takes a new look at the Nazis ruthless attack on modern art and at their unprecedented looting of private, mostly Jewish art collections in Austria, Holland, and France. Eighty-five years after the end of the hostilities, the book examines a sizable fraction of the art that miraculously survived, especially in American art museums. In addition to art, leading artists, art professionals, scholars and architects, fled Hitler’s realm; their contributions to their new homeland helped to shift the center of art world from Europe to the United States.
Suzanne Loebl will be in conversation about the book with Abigail Wilentz.
Suzanne Loebl is the author of fourteen books, most recently America’s Medicis: The Rockefellers and Their Astonishing Cultural Legacy. She was born into an art-collecting family in Germany and escaped the Nazis as a teenager by hiding in Belgium. Her other books include America’s Art Museums: A Traveler’s Guide to Great Collections Large and Small and a memoir on her experience during World War II, At the Mercy of Strangers: Growing Up on the Edge of the Holocaust. In 2012, Loebl received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Society of Journalists and Authors.
Abigail Wilentz has developed books on art, design, photography, fashion, lifestyle, and other topics as an editor at Universe Publishing, a division of Rizzoli International Publications, at Watson-Guptill Publications, and independently with agents and authors. She has written several books commissioned by publishers and directed a custom publishing line for the luxury fashion brand Brioni.

Marking the liberation of Auschwitz in 1945, International Holocaust Remembrance Day allows us to reflect upon the profound tragedy of the Holocaust while coming together to share a moment of peace and hope for the future. This year’s commemoration features a conversation between Faris Cassell, author of Inseparable: The Hess Twins’ Holocaust Journey through Bergen-Belsen to America, and Holocaust survivor Marion Ein Lewin, whose family is the subject of the book.
Torn from their home in Amsterdam, Cassell will trace the story from the Hesses’ prosperous pre-war life in Germany to their desperate ride in a bullet-strafed boxcar through the rubble of the collapsing Third Reich. Join us to discover the story of a family’s love that endured the most sinister of circumstances, serving as an inspiration to all.
About the Speakers
Faris Cassell, award-winning investigative journalist, is the author of Inseparable: The Hess Twins’ Holocaust Journey through Bergen-Belsen to America. Her first book, The Unanswered Letter, won a 2021 National Jewish Book Award and an American Society of Journalists and Authors biography award. Cassell earned her M.S. in journalism with honors from the University of Oregon and her B.A. in History from Mt. Holyoke College. She lives with her husband in Eugene, Oregon.
Marion Ein Lewin (née Hess) and her twin brother, Steven Hess, were six years old when they were taken by the Nazis from Holland to Bergen-Belsen, where they endured brutal conditions and lived in a state of fear. The twins and their parents were imprisoned there for approximately one year, narrowly escaping being sent to Auschwitz. After liberation, they moved to the United States.

Description:
Nazism has always faced resistance – from the German artists who risked their lives by drawing caricatures of the Nazis in the 1920s, or the man who infiltrated the SS to try to expose the Holocaust in the 1940s, or the people who uncovered former Nazis as part of a groundbreaking documentary in the 1970s. Dr. Luke Berryman’s Resisting Nazism is the first book to connect such stories, painting a vivid picture of resistance to far-right extremism across the generations.
Dr. Luke Berryman is the Founder and CEO of The Ninth Candle, a Chicago-based nonprofit organization that helps schools to improve Holocaust education. Luke has written about the Holocaust and antisemitism for newspapers including The Chicago Tribune, USA Today, and The Guardian, and for pedagogy journals like Education Week and Chalkbeat. He wrote his doctoral thesis on the use of classical music in Nazi propaganda at King’s College London.
