Ibmemoirs : [The memoirs of Inge Brenner].
No full textIn a memoir written for her daughters, Inge (Irene) Brenner recounts her family’s history, growing up in Berlin with her parents, her maternal grandfather Samuel Oppenheimer and her two sisters, Lony (born 1913) and Marianne (born 1922). She tells of the hardship that befell Jewish families after the Nazis’ rise to power. Her sister Lony left for Paris in 1933 and later worked as a secretary for the Zionist politician Vladimir Jabotinsky. Inge met her future husband Hans (Harold) Brenner in 1937 in Berlin; he was able to immigrate with the help of an American cousin and sent for Inge soon after Kristallnacht. They met in Havana, Cuba, and were married there. He returned to New York while Inge waited for her visa in Cuba, then entered the United States via Miami. Hans and Inge lived in a small apartment in Washington Heights, eventually joined by his parents as well as Inge’s parents and younger sister Marianne. When Lony and her husband Maurice arrived from Paris, they started a small business that employed several members of the family. Hans and Inge had two daughters, Barbara and Jessica; Maurice and Lony had one daughter named Linda. Inge also describes her younger sister’s life in some detail. Marianne, in an ultimately broken marriage with Henry Dreifus, gave birth to her only daughter at the age of 22. Claudia Dreifus was raised until the age of eight by her grandmother, Emma Willdorff, and later by her father and step-mother. Marianne went on to suffer a nervous breakdown, followed by a severe car accident. She spent her final years living in Reno with her second husband Aram Jorjorian. Following a second divorce, Marianne died at age 55.digitizedPart of the Claudia Dreifus Family Collection.Inge (Irene) Willdorff Brenner was born in Berlin, Germany on Aug. 8, 1919, daughter of Benno Willdorff and Emma, née Oppenheimer
The angel of history /
No full textTheater play, written in 1999. It dramatizes the 1940 flight across the Pyrenees by anti-Nazi activist Lisa Fittko and writer/philosopher Walter Benjamin. Inspired by Lisa Fittko's memoirs, the play follows the converging stories of Lisa Fittko, a pragmatic activist intent on saving lives, and Walter Benjamin, an unworldly philosopher who wants only to save his cherished manuscript. Their stories climax at the French-Spanish border where Lisa, on her first solo trip as a border guide, tries to save Benjamin and two other refugees from the Nazis. Calling Mrs. Fittko an "unsung heroine of the Holocaust", the playwrights explore the nature of heroism and resistance and the motivation of ordinary heroes like Lisa and her husband Hans Fittko. The Angel of History is one of four plays to win the national 1998 festival of new plays sponsored by the Jewish Ensemble Theater in Michigan
