Biographical History

Dr. Fridolin Moritz Max Friedmann (1897-1976) was a British pedagogue of Jewish-German descent. The World War One veteran had accompanied several Kindertransporte to England and remained there himself in 1939 eventually. Upon the end of the Second World War he was in charge of reception centers for child survivors of the Holocaust. See Walk, J., Kurzbiographien zur Geschichte der Juden 1918-1945, Munich et.al., K. G. Saur, 1988, p. 106.

Scope and Content

Beside an enquiry for source material and the provision of contact details of a potential interviewee for the Library’s eyewitness testimony project the correspondence centres on an engagement of Friedmann by The Wiener Library for compiling an index to the German Jewish Press for the years 1920-1933 relating to the information published there on the origin and growth of the Nazi Party.
