Saul Friedlander

Saul Friedlander came to UCLA in 1983 as a visiting professor in history. Four years later, he became the first recipient of the 1939 Club Chair in Holocaust Studies. He had already completed his acclaimed 1979 personal memoir When Memory Comes.

Since coming to UCLA, he has founded the influential scholarly journal History and Memory. His many books include History, Memory and the Extermination of the Jews (1993), Reflections of Nazism (1984) and Nazi Germany and the Jews, Volume 1: The Years of Persecution, 1933-1939 (1997). The latter is considered the definitive history of the period. The second volume will be called The Years of Extermination, 1939-1945.
