Hugo Gryn was born into a wealthy Jewish family in Czechoslovakia on June 28, 1930. Early on, he worked in business in the market town of Berehovo. Then in 1944, he and his family were forced into the ghetto. And six years later, Gryn and his family were deported into Auschwitz. He had a brother, a mother, and a father. He and his mother survived, but his father and brother died while in Auschwitz. He fell under the category of **victim** because he was under the control of a higher power, in this case the German Nazis. It also gave the impression that he was a victim because after the Holocaust, he achieved many things: he became a famed rabbi for 30 years, helping “people who sought his advice on personal problems.” He was an early activist in the Civil Rights Movement, befriending Martin Luther King Jr. He broadcasted on the BBC radio show: “The Moral Maze,” which was a high-rated live debate examining the moral issues behind news stories. He wrote the book //Chasing Shadows//, which basically told the story of his experiences during the Holocaust. Says Hyam Malloby of the Evening Standard, “This book is an essential witness to the horrors of the 20th century, and also to the resilience of the human spirit.” Most assume that his experiences in Auchwitz drove him to doing these things, and I believe that as well, considering how horrible the Holocaust was. He died in 1996.
