From 2 to 3 p.m., Amy Lutz, manager of communications and social media for the St. Louis Kaplan Feldman Holocaust Museum, will share the little-known story of Carl Lutz, one of the Righteous Among the Nations. 

Lutz was a Swiss diplomat who served the Swiss Legation in Budapest between 1942-1945. He issued tens of thousands of Swiss protective papers to Hungarian Jews in danger from the Nazis and their collaborators. Because of his efforts, Lutz (whose diplomatic appointments included a stint in St. Louis)  is recognized as organizing the largest civilian rescue mission of the Holocaust. Sadly, his story has mostly been lost to history.
