I hope you have read the many tributes that are being written about Nobel Peace Prize winner Elie Wiesel. He was a Holocaust survivor, and the world’s memory keeper for victims of Nazi persecution who used his moral authority to force attention on atrocities around the world. He died at 87 this week.
For many years, I have recommended to family and friends Mr. Wiesel’s book “Night,” his account of the concentration camps where he watched his father die and where his mother and younger sister were gassed. Elie Wiesel was a “messenger to mankind,” and I had the pleasure of visiting with him last year in New York City. The loss of a great American.
