herded into a ghetto at Terezin,
Bohemia.
Born In Halle on the Sale.

in the industrial city OF Halle-on-
the Sale, where his father directed
a music conservatory.
A product of the turbulent period
following the First World War he
first aligned himself with the Ger

in Halle, rising from post to post
from 1918 to 1919. Then he joined
up with the towns free corps. leav-
