Onstage at the Reagan Library with Richard Hurowitz

As part of the programming for our exhibition, Auschwitz. Not long ago. Not far away., please join us for a conversation and book signing with Richard Hurowitz for his new book, In the Garden of the Righteous: The Heroes Who Risked Their Lives to Save Jews During the Holocaust (Publish Date: January 24, 2023).

In the Garden of the Righteous chronicles extraordinary acts at a time when the moral choices were stark, the threat immense, and the passive apathy of millions predominated. Deeply researched and astonishingly moving, it focuses on ten remarkable stories of those who provided hiding places, participated in underground networks, refused to betray their neighbors, and secured safe passage. They repeatedly defied authorities and risked their lives, their livelihoods, and their families to save the helpless and the persecuted.

Richard Hurowitz is a writer, investor, and the publisher of The Octavian Report, the magazine of ideas. He is the chief executive officer of Octavian and Company LLC, an investment firm.
