THE WRITE WORD

If you find the right gift a chore,
And written words don't flow for you,
Let the "write words" from my pen pour,
'lb make a portrait fresh and new.
A character sketch I will create.
'lb mark whatever you celebrate.
So let my "Write Words" speak for you,
And convey portraits, Oh so true!

In 1977, following a sabbatical
in Israel and a visit to Holocaust
sites in Europe, Rabbi Hier
dreamed of building twin institu
tions to serve Judaism and hu-
manity. What materialized was
Yeshiva University of Los
Angeles (YULA) and the Simon
Wiesenthal Center.

As the Wiesenthal Center's
dean, Rabbi Hier has led an
American delegation to West
Germany in 1979, where he met
with former Chancellor Helmut
Schmidt about the statute of limi-
tations for Nazi war criminals.

He served in 1980 as co-
spokesman for the American
Jewish delegation that met with
then-Secretary General Kurt
Waldheim about the Cambodian
genocide. At the Vatican in 1983,
leading a North American delega-
tion, Rabbi Hier addressed the
issue of anti-Semitism and inter-

Rabbi Marvin Hier

religiods relations with Pope
John Paul II.
Rabbi Hier has met on several
occasions with French Justice
Minister Robert Badinter to dis-
cuss the case of Nazi war criminal
Klaus Barbie, and has raised the
matter of Nazi war criminals dur-
ing a White House meeting with
President Ronald Reagan.
He has led dialogues with the
French Foreign Minister (relev-
ant to the Middle East), and with
Hungarian Deputy Prime Minis-
ter Sarlos in Budapest (with focus
on Raoul Wallenberg).
In 1979, Rabbi Hier produced a
documentary on the Holocaust,
and in his capacity_as co-author
and co-producer, he became the
first rabbi in the academy's his-
tory to receive an "Oscar." The
film, Genocide, was nominated
and won the Academy Award for
best feature film documentary.
