Description of Pictures: Nadine Epstein - Elie Wiesel, an Extraordinary Life and Legacy: Writings, Photographs and Reflections — in conversation with Robert Siegel
A survivor of Auschwitz, Elie Wiesel (1928-2016) devoted his life to ensuring that the Holocaust never be repeated nor forgotten. He left a legacy rich in teachings, writings—some 57 books, including his classic Night—along with institutions such as the Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity. In 1975 he co-founded Moment Magazine as a place of conversation for American Jews. Moment’s editor since 2004, Epstein pays tribute to Wiesel, her friend and mentor, with this beautiful collection of stories, memories, photos, and interviews with those who knew him, including his son Elisha, Michael Berenbaum, Wolf Blitzer, Father Patrick Desbois, Ronald S. Lauder, Bernard-Henri Lévy, Kati Marton, Natan Sharansky, Ben Kingsley, and Oprah Winfrey. Epstein will be in conversation with Robert Siegel, former co-host of NPR’s All Things Considered.
Also here is an after-launch event which included Mary Hadar among others.

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
