when he was 3. They resided
there until they fled from
the city on the eve of World
War II. He took an active
part in the Strasbourg
Jewish community affairs

an operatic singer and as a
member of the community's
choir.
Having found refuge in

Vichy regime, he joined the
resistance movement with
which he fought until the
end of the war.

central role in the recon-
struction of Jewish
community life in France
in the post-war years. In
