An Auschwitz concentration camp survivor and a member of the Nazi Youth Movement discuss their “uncommon friendship” as part of Vanderbilt’s Holocaust Lecture Series Thursday, Nov. 10 at 7 p.m. at the Law School.
Bernie Rosner, who survived Auschwitz but lost his entire family, and Frederich “Fritz” Tubach, whose father was a German army soldier, discussed how as teenagers they struggled on opposite sides of the Holocaust. But, as adults, they met in California in 1983 and slowly over time started to discuss their pasts. The two wrote about their parallel lives in the book An Uncommon Friendship: From Opposite Sides of the Holocaust. Co-author Sally Tubach, wife of Fritz Tubach, introduced the program.
