Judith Hemmendinger, in the 1980s
Judith Feist(1923-10-02)2 October 1923Bad Homburg vor der Höhe,Hesse-Nassau,Prussia,Germany | University of Strasbourg(PhD, 1981) | Claude Hemmendinger **Judith Hemmendinger**(née**Feist** , 2 October 1923 – 24 March 2024) was a German-born Israeli researcher and author who specialised in child survivors of theHolocaust. DuringWorld War II, she was asocial workerand refugee counselor for theŒuvre de secours aux enfants(OSE), a French Jewish children's aid organization based inGeneva, and from 1945 to 1947, she directed a home for child survivors ofBuchenwaldin France. She authored books and papers on the Holocaust experiences and later lives of child survivors. She was awarded the FrenchLegion of Honorin 2003. Judith Feist was born on 2 October 1923,[1][2]inBad Homburg vor der Höhe, Germany, to Phillip Feist, a native ofFrankfurtwho worked as a mining engineer, and his wife Hannah, nee Eisenmann.[1][3]She was a great granddaughter ofEliezer Liepman Philip Prins. Her family wasOrthodox Jewishand well-off.[1]She was the second of five children.[2]When she was five years old, her father found employment in the Parisian suburb ofEaubonneand moved the family to France. As the only Jews in their locale, the Feist children attended public school, where they spoke French and learned secular subjects, while, at home, they spoke German and were tutored inHebrewand the Bible.[1][2]When her older sister began high school, Judith's family moved toParis.[1] The outbreak ofWorld War IIin September 1939 found the Feists on their annual summer vacation inMegève, southern France. Phillip Feist was arrested as anenemy alienand deported to a detention camp inNormandy. The rest of the family was assigned to a house in Megève.[1]Upon Phillip's release in June 1940, the family traveled toRoannein theFrench Free Zone. However, German officials advised Phillip to return to Paris, while his wife and children stayed in Roanne.[1]Later, Phillip traveled toNiceto open a school, at the behest of RabbiSchneour Zalman Schneersohn.[1][3]He was arrested at theNicetrain station and interned in theGurs internment camp. He was afterwards deported to theDrancy internment campand on toAuschwitzin September 1943, where he was murdered on the same day he arrived.[1] In summer 1942, Judith began working at a youth hostel for hidden children operated by theŒuvre de secours aux enfants(OSE), a French Jewish children's aid organization based inGeneva.[1][4]On 1 January 1943, she traveled under the alias of Jacqueline Fournier toTaluyers, and joined a coverthakhshara(Zionist agricultural training institute) operated by theÉclaireuses et Éclaireurs israélites de Franceunder the guise of an agricultural school. The student body of 22 young Jewish men and women all carried false papers.[1]She developed a relationship with one of the students, Claude Hemmendinger, but in September 1943, her mother called her to accompany her and her younger siblings on an escape toSwitzerland, following her father's arrest. The family trekked over theAlpswith a guide, but was arrested after crossing the border and was detained in Geneva.[1] After their release, they were sent to a refugee camp, where Judith worked as a teacher. She applied for a six-month course being offered by the OSE to trainsocial workers""to deal with the post-war situation"", and was accepted.[1]As part of her job, she interviewed child refugees traveling under false papers to find out their true identities, with the goal of re-uniting them with their families after the war.[1] After the home closed, Judith went to London to stay with her aunt and uncle. There, she received a letter from Claude Hemmendinger, her fellow student at the hakhshara, who wished to see her again. They met in Paris and were married in September 1948. At first, they settled on akibbutzinBeit She'an,Israel, but returned to Claude's mother's home inStrasbourgafter the death of his father. They resided in Strasbourg for 20 years.[10]They had two sons and one daughter.[10] In Strasbourg, Judith Hemmendinger began seeing a psychotherapist to work through her wartime experiences.[10]Upon the family's return to Israel in 1969, she undertook a formal education, earning her bachelor's degree in Jerusalem, her master's degree atBar-Ilan University, and her PhD at theUniversity of Strasbourgin 1981.[10]Her doctoral thesis was titled ""Rehabilitation of Young Camp Survivors after the Death Camps"".[11] Hemmendinger remained in contact with the Buchenwald children and their offspring for years.[10]In 1970, she was invited by the child survivors to a dinner commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the liberation of Buchenwald.[14] Hemmendinger died on 24 March 2024, at the age of 100.[16][17]

From The Daily Telegraph. Judith Hemmendinger, who has died aged 100, dedicated her life to the child survivors of the Holocaust, first as a hands-on social worker during the war, helping hidden Jewish children while hiding from the Nazis herself, and then after the war, as headmistress of an orphanage rehabilitating children liberated from Buchenwald. Judith Feist was born on October 2 1923 in Bad-Homburg, near Frankfurt, to wealthy orthodox Jews, in a villa with a grand garden. Her father was a mining engineer and her mother was a zoologist and botanist. The “golden” period of her childhood ended aged six, she recalled, when they moved to Paris, and she had to adapt to a secular education and a new language. As news filtered west of pogroms and concentration camps, she developed insomnia. When the Germans invaded France, her father was eventually deported to Drancy, then Auschwitz, where he was killed on the day he arrived. The mother hid in the Free French zone with her two youngest children, the other three hidden elsewhere. Judith worked in a youth hostel for orthodox Jews in the Free French zone. After the Germans occupied the whole of France, she went in January 1943 under false papers to Taluyers, a covert Zionist agricultural collective near Lyon. In September 1943 she escorted her mother over the Alps into Switzerland, where they were imprisoned, then detained in a refugee camp. Judith trained with the Jewish aid organisation OSE (Œuvre de secours aux enfants) as a social worker, interviewing children who had arrived with false papers to help them locate their families. In 1945, OSE sent her to Ambloy. Of the 1,000 boys found alive by American soldiers in the concentration camp on 11 April 1945, 426 were sent to France, of which around 90 – the most religious, who required kosher food – were housed at Chateau d’Ambloy in the Loire. They were mostly teenagers, rebellious, and filled with rage. When Judith Feist (as she then was) arrived at Ambloy as a volunteer, she found the director was overwhelmed. One of the boys in her care was Elie Wiesel, who would later win the Nobel Peace Prize. He recalled that the orphanage staff seemed “to belong to another universe... did you know, Judith, that we pitied you? […] You thought you could educate us, and yet the youngest of us knew more than the oldest amongst you, about what existed in the world.” Judith soon took over as director, although she was only 22, with the help of another girl, Niny. Being close in age to the children helped. “We accepted the boys as they were, simply trusting them without trying to force anything upon them,” she recalled. The results were impressive. “All the children could have chosen violence or nihilism but you succeeded to direct us toward confidence and reconciliation,” wrote Wiesel later. “You bet on us to recover. Judith, do you realise how much you meant to our existence?” In October 1945 the school moved to Chateau de Vaucelles in Taverny, near Paris. Judith stayed until September 1947, when the final boy was found a permanent home. She waited anxiously for the first reports to come back from her boys (“nos enfants”), now settled with distant cousins in Spain and America, and was distraught when their letters complained of being told to forget, and being treated like “museum pieces” because of the numbers tattooed on their arms. The boys told her they were saving up to come “home” to Taverny and their “real brothers”. But since Taverny had shut, and their futures lay elsewhere, she judged it kinder not to reply; later, she tortured herself with regret for losing contact. In 1965, however, the Buchenwald boys invited her as an honoured guest to their 20th anniversary reunion dinner in New York. She was delighted to find that, by and large, they had thrived: most were working, often in high-powered jobs; the majority had married, and most of those marriages had lasted. This led her to challenge the prevailing assumption that survivors of the Holocaust were inevitably damaged beyond repair, “hopeless and helpless, a group of people to be written off”. The picture was distorted, she believed, because most Holocaust survivors refused to speak about their experiences. Silence was a defence mechanism: “All they want is to behave like everyone else, as if they hadn’t been through anything, so that no one would suspect them of being ‘survivors’,” she observed. The trust she had won in 1945-47, however, meant that her boys were prepared to share memories with her that they would not even tell their wives or children. At Wiesel’s urging, she collected 60 of their testimonies, 15 of which she published in 1981 as a doctoral thesis, and then as a book, The Children of Buchenwald, which was widely translated. Another Buchenwald boy, Robert Krell, wrote in the introduction that it was precisely because Judith had not been in the camps that she was able to give them “the human ingredients necessary to help recapture trust, self-esteem, ordinary joy and a renewed respect for life – and death”.Full obituary with photographs.
