Kurt Andersen and Ron Rosenbaum talk about how contemporary artists, writers, and filmmakers respond to the Holocaust.
Rosenbaum is the author of Explaining Hitler: The Search for the Origins of His Evil, an analysis of how writers, theologians, and filmmakers have tried to understand Hitler. He writes for The New York Times Magazine, The New York Observer, and Esquire, and teaches a course on literary journalism at the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism. His most recent book is The Secret Parts of Fortune: Three Decades of Intense Investigations and Edgy Enthusiasms.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
