Robert Krell survived the Holocaust as a hidden child in Holland. Eventually he became a noted child psychiatrist recognized, in particular, for his scholarly research and public lectures on the psychological trauma in Holocaust survivors and their children. He co-authored an updated, translated edition of Judith Hemmendinger Feist's book, The Children of Buchenwald: Child Survivors and Their Post-War Lives (2000) which recounts the story of the 426 young survivors sent from Buchenwald to France.

This event is presented by The Herman P. and Sophia Taubman Foundation Endowed Symposia in Jewish Studies at UCSB and sponsored by Morris Squire.
