The Zookeeper's Wife
There will always be a need to tell powerful stories from some of
humanities darkest times. This rings especially true for stories about
the Nazi's and the Holocaust because we have a resurgence of the same
sentiment that led to one of the worst regimes in history. Diane
Ackerman wrote a story based on real life historic heroes that remind us
that we can fight against oppression in a non-violent way with her book
"The Zookeeper's Wife". The book has subsequently been made into a
film. In this 2017 interview, Ackerman shares her process of learning
about the remarkable heroism of the woman at the center of the story and
how her choices still hold up as a reminder of human kindness in a
sometimes cruel world.
