Exiled in Paradise: German Refugee Artists and Intellectuals in America from the 1930s to the Present Volume 16

by Anthony Heilbut

A brilliant look at the writers, artists, scientists, movie directors, and scholars--ranging from Bertolt Brecht to Albert Einstein, Hannah Arendt, Thomas Mann, and Fritz Lang--who fled Hitler's Germany and how they changed the very fabric of American culture. In a new postscript, Heilbut draws attention to the recent changes in reputation and image that have shaped the reception of the German exiles.
