The Confidante: The Untold Story of the Woman Who Helped Win WWII and Shape Modern America

Hosted By: The Center for Jewish History

A Hungarian Jewish immigrant with only a high school education, Anna Marie Rosenberg was FDR’s special envoy to Europe in World War II, was among the first Allied women to enter a liberated concentration camp, and stood in the Eagle’s Nest, Hitler’s mountain retreat, days after its capture. She was a key figure behind national policies critical to America winning the war and prospering afterwards, guiding the direction of the Manhattan Project and the G.I. Bill of Rights. In this first-ever biography of Rosenberg, who was dubbed by Life Magazine “the most important woman in the American government,” Christopher C. Gorham affords her the recognition she so richly deserves.
