Ruth Klüger was born in Vienna in 1931. During the war, she was interned at several camps, including Auschwitz and Theresienstadt. Her memoir, Still Alive: A Holocaust Girlhood Remembered , is well known and much praised. After the war, she came to America, received a Ph.D. at Berkeley, and taught German literature for many years, especially at UC-Irvine, where she is professor emerita. On April 9, 2013, Professor Klüger discussed recent trends in depicting the Holocaust through fiction. As a survivor and a noteworthy author and scholar, she brings a special dimension to her review. Ruth Klüger's appearance was co-sponsored by the School of History, Philosophy, and Religion, the School of Language, Culture, and Society; the School of Writing, Literature and Film; and the Austrian Consulate General, Los Angeles At Oregon State University, we have observed Holocaust Memorial Week every year since 1987. The breadth and the duration of our effort are unmatched in the Pacific Northwest. This program grows from the belief that educational institutions can do much to combat prejudice of all kinds, and to foster respect for the diversity that is America, by promoting an awareness of the Holocaust, perhaps the most horrific historical indicator of the high cost of prejudice. It is particularly important to teach young people about the Holocaust, so that coming generations will not forget the lessons that a preceding one learned at such cost. This emphasis recalls the motto of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum: "For the dead and the living, we must bear witness."
