About Hermann Leopoldi
- Hermann Leopoldi (born Hersch Kohn; 15 August 1888 – 28 June 1959) was an Austrian composer and cabaret star who survived Buchenwald. Einzi Stolz, wife of composer Robert Stolz, remembered him thus: "Leopoldi was for us all some sort of creature from a different planet.
- Through a salvation bordering on a wonder he had survived the horrors of concentration camps Buchenwald and Dachau.
- He maintained his belief in the good in humanity and remained an optimist, who gave courage and confidence to many in times of difficulty."
