MEET THE SPEAKERS
Dr. Efraim Zuroff was the Director of the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Jerusalem. As the world’s last Nazi hunter, he co-created the project, “Operation Last Chance” that investigates and convicts Nazi war criminals. He is internationally recognized for his role in the arrest, extradition of prosecution of Dinko Šakić, the fascist commandant of Jasenovac Concentration Camp. Dr. Zuroff is also the author of 500 scholarly articles, publications, and books about the Holocaust and related subjects. His works include: Occupation Nazi-Hunter, Operation Last Chance, Our People, and the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s “Annual Status Report on the Investigation and Prosecution of Nazi War Criminals.”
Dr. Mordecai Paldiel headed the Righteous Among the Nations Department at Yad Vashem from 1982-2007. His books include The Path of the Righteous, Sheltering the Jews, Saving the Jews, Diplomat Heroes of the Holocaust, and Saving One’s Own. He serves on the B’nai B’rith Commission to honor Jewish rescuers of Jews during the Holocaust. He is also on the Board of the Sousa Mendes Foundation and, thanks to his efforts, there is now a square named for Aristides de Sousa Mendes in Jerusalem. He provided the list of 60 diplomat-rescuers honored by the US Congress in 2024 in the Forgotten Heroes of the Holocaust Congressional Gold Medal Act.
