Using letters from the National Archives in Washington D.C., this work by Udo Bayer documents Laemmle s untiring use of his influence, money, power and energy to provide hundreds of persecuted German Jews with affidavits and save them from the National Socialist regime. His unique humanitarian engagement testifies to his deep compassion for the fate of the Jews in Germany and his selfless readiness to help.
Autorentext
Carl Laemmle (1867 - 1939) had many jobs and functions in his life: He was a book keeper and distributor, cinema owner and Hollywood pioneer, founder of Universal and inventor of the first film stars. But, not least of all, this family father, born in Laupheim in Southern Germany , was a Jewish descent and felt connected with two native countries throughout his life. His life represents a whole epoch in its structure and its fashions - far exceeding just the development of the American business. ..
