His personal experience of the Holocaust has led him to use his talents by becoming an author of over 40 books, teacher and storyteller to vigorously defend human rights and peace. The Los Angeles Times described Elie Wiesel as "the most important Jew in America". Elie Wiesel's constant efforts to promote peace and tolerance have earned him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the U.S. Congressional Gold Medal and the Medal of Liberty Award, and the rank of Grand Officer in the French Legion of Honor. He was appointed a chair of the President's Commission on the Holocaust by President Jimmy Carter and became founding chair of the United State Holocaust Memorial Council.

Extractions: Elie Wiesel was born in Sighet, Transylvania on September 30,1928. He grew up the only son of four children in a close-knit Jewish community. He was well educated in Hebrew studies, concentrating on the Hassidic sect of Judaism to which his mother's family belonged. World War II changed Wiesel's life forever after his village was taken over by the Nazis in 1944. At age 15, he and his family were sent to Auschwitz concentration camp. Wiesel was separated from his mother and younger sister but remained with his father for another year. His father died in the last months of the war, and he never saw his mother and sister again learning that they had perished in the gas chambers. Wiesel ended up serving time at three other concentration camps Buna, Buchenwald and Gleiwitz. Following the war, Wiesel learned that his two older sisters had survived. At the end of the war in 1945, Wiesel spent a few years in a French orphanage. In 1948, he began to study literature, philosophy and psychology at the Sorbonne. He became a journalist at that time and wrote for L'arche newspaper. While writing for this paper, Wiesel met Nobel laureate Francois Mauriac who encouraged him to break his personal vow to never speak of his concentration camp experiences. In 1956, Wiesel was involved in a motor vehicle accident while in New York City. After a year of recovery, he made the decision to become a U.S. citizen.

Harris World Peace Lecture at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 2, in the Melvin Price Convocation Center. In a post Sept. 11 world, Wiesels words carry even more weight today. His 1958 book, Night , recounts the horrors of the Holocaust and is regarded as one of the most powerful pieces of literature to emerge from the Holocaust. Born in Romania to a small Jewish family in 1928, Wiesel said the invasion of the Nazis in 1944 seemed unreal. "Everything changed overnight. A few words were uttered by a man in uniform, and the order of Creation collapsed," Wiesel later said. Although he survived, he lost his father, mother and sister in the concentration camps, events that prompted him to dedicate his life to making sure no one forgets the Holocaust.

http://www.wagingpeace.org/articles/peaceheroes/elie_wiesel.htm

Extractions: Elie Wiesel, Nobel lecture, Oslo, Dec. 11, 1986 Placed in the National Archives of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum is an infamous photo of the Nazi concentration Buchenwald. The men are stacked into rows of bunk beds. On the right, one of them is standing, his skin stretched tightly over his bones, his face so grieved it is beyond emotional expression. From the dark shadows behind a beam peers the dark eyes of a prisoner, on the verge of manhood. Like all the others, he is frail, on the brink of hope and despair. Fate played another unexpected hand when Wiesel was covering the United Nations in New York and was seriously injured in a car accident. Temporarily confined to a wheelchair and unable to return home, he became a U.S. citizen to continue to legally stay in the States. It was here he met and married Marion Rose, who has translated many of his works written in French into English.

Extractions: What Mauriac gave Wiesel in return for this transformation was the weight of his moral authority and the power of his literary status. Mauriac found Wiesel a publisher, wrote his first and most glowing reviews, even dedicated his Life of Jesus to him, the "crucified Jewish child" (!); in short, Mauriac found and secured Wiesel the larger audience he wanted. And in conversation with Mauriac, Wiesel developed a language to talk about the Jewish genocide that could hold the attention of Jews and Christians, a considerable achievement indeed.

Extractions: Elie Wiesel, Nobel Laureate for Peace and Andrew W. Mellon Professor in the Humanities at BU, meets with students. The Elie Wiesel Center for Judaic Studies attracts world-class scholars and students. The Elie Wiesel Center for Judaic Studies is the academic heart of Judaism at Boston University. The Center serves as a magnet for students and scholars of Jewish culture, civilization, and religion. This multifaceted, interdisciplinary program gives special emphasis to Holocaust scholarship and issues of modern Judaism, but does not neglect the classical, medieval, and later eras, from which so much of our heritage in the Judeo-Christian tradition is derived. Few universities in the United States or abroad have the depth and breadth of Boston University's Jewish scholarship and related intellectual assets. Boston University has a long and distinguished record in the area of Judaic Studies, including the presence on its faculty for more than twenty years of Elie Wiesel, 1986 Nobel Laureate for Peace. Visiting scholars of note in Judaic Studies have included Gershom Scholem, and past faculty members have included Nahum Glatzer and Marvin Fox. Of the three Nobel laureates teaching at Boston University, two Elie Wiesel and novelist Saul Bellow have devoted their work to chronicling Jewish life.

He was born an Orthodox Jew in Rumania, survived the concentration camps and wrote about his experiences. He became a spokesman for survivors and dedicated his life to recording the horrors of the Holocaust and helping victims of oppression and racism. Wiesel was born in Sighet, a Rumanian shtetl , on September 30, 1928. His parents, Shlomo and Sarah, were Orthodox Jews who owned a grocery store. He had two older sisters, Hilda and Bea, and a younger sister, Tsiporah. When he was three years old, Wiesel began attending a Jewish school where he learned Hebrew, Bible , and eventually Talmud . His thinking was influenced by his maternal grandfather who was a prominent Hasid . He also spent time talking with Moshe, a caretaker in his synagogue who told Wiesel about the Messiah and other mysteries of Judaism In 1940, the Nazis turned Sighet over to

Extractions: 1992 Recipient Born in the town of Sighet in northern Transylvania, near the Ukrainian border in 1928, Eliezer Wiesel grew up experiencing first-hand the horrors of the Holocaust. In 1944, Wiesel and his family were transported to Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland during World War II. There, Elie's mother and youngest sister, Tzipora, died in the gas chambers. The following year, after he and his father were transferred to Buchenwald, the senior Wiesel died from starvation and dysentery. Elie did not learn that his two older sisters were alive until after the war. In 1945, at the end of the war, Wiesel moved to Paris, where he studied literature, philosophy, and psychology at the Sorbonne. With a strong desire to write, Mr. Wiesel worked as a journalist in Paris before coming to the United States in 1956. He became an American citizen almost by accident. After coming to New York City on assignment, he was hit by a taxicab, and confined to a wheelchair for a year. A friend convinced him to apply for U.S. citizenship, and he eventually decided to remain in America. Credited by many as being the first person to use the term "holocaust," Mr. Wiesel published his first novel in 1956. Un di Velt Hot Geshvign (And the World Has Remained Silent) was the first of a series of books Wiesel would write about his experiences at Auschwitz and Buchenwald. Although his works were ultimately successful, Elie Wiesel met with initial skepticism. "The holocaust was not something people wanted to know about in those days," he reported in an interview with Time magazine. "The diary of Anne Frank was about as far as anyone wanted to venture into the dark."
