Join The Smithsonian Associates for a special Zoom lecture! Drawing on his new book, The Escape Artist, Jonathan Freedland recounts the extraordinary story of Rudolf Vrba, a man he feels deserves to take his place alongside Anne Frank, Oskar Schindler, and Primo Levi as one of a handful of individuals whose experiences define our understanding of the Holocaust.

Freedland is a British journalist who writes a weekly column for The Guardian and is the author of 11 books.
