Dear all,
Looking at this database, whicH seems to me a bit incomplete, I would
like to add or/and correct some infos:
Otto Preminger - colleague of my father in junior school, born in
Wiznitz, but he always maintained he was born in Vienna, where he moved
with his family while still young. He died in 1986, in the US. Most
famous films: Witness of the prosecution, Exodus.
E.G. Robinson - he was born in Bucharest according to Wikipedia etc.
Maybe he was not proud of being born in a smaller town or even village,
who knows exactly?
L.E. Franzos - born in Czortków, Galicia, 1848-1904. He lived for a few
years in Czernowitz, but not being able to continue his studies, he
went to Vienna and Prague, later in Berlin where he is buried at the
Weissensee Cemetery.
F. Kiesler - a famous architect, together with a colleague he built the
phantastic "Shrine of the Book" in Jerusalem.
Erich Roll - 1907-2005 - born in Novoselyzja, studied in Czernowitz and
later England, but spent most of his life in the U.K.
Edwin. R. Gold - 1905-1990 Immunologist , aforerunner in his field wrote
the first book on immunology in Romania in 1957, friend and colleagueof
Erwin Chargaff.
Selma Merbaum - maybe her name can be changed from Meerbaum-Eisinger to
Merbaum, according to the latest information by Marion Tauschwitz.
Whoever from the List has more information on this database, they are
welcome to supply it.
