Show notes

Rabbi Leo Baeck was one of the leading scholars of liberal Judaism in his time. When the Nazis came to power, he became the chairman of the newly formed Representative Council of German Jews. He led the Jewish community until his own deportation to the Theresienstadt ghetto. Judith and Jakob speak with Michael A. Meyer, who has written a new biography on Baeck’s fascinating life. Michael was a professor at the Hebrew Union College and published widely on Jewish history and liberal Judaism. He was the editor of the four-volume “German-Jewish History in Modern Times” and edited the last volume of Baeck’s collected works.
