Nazi collaborator John Demjanjuk was a retired Cleveland autoworker when his past as a Nazi death camp guard was uncovered. Award-winning journalist and author Tom Teicholz covered Demjanjuk's trial in Jerusalem in 1987, and he is featured extensively in the Netflix documentary about Demjanjuk, The Devil Next Door.

Teicholz's new book, Ivan of the Extermination Camp, is a comprehensive account of Demjanjuk’s trials and denials over a 30-year period in the United States, Israel and Germany. Join us for a discussion with Teicholz about his book, the remaining questions about Demjanjuk’s Nazi service, and the fundamental mystery: How could someone who was a good husband, a good father, a church-goer and a good citizen have been a Nazi death camp murderer?

Tom Teicholz is an award-winning journalist and author whose work appears on Forbes.com, Los Angeles Magazine and the Los Angeles Review of Books, and has been published in The New York Times Sunday Magazine, The Los Angeles Times Op-Ed page, Newsweek.com, The Paris Review, The New Yorker's 'Talk of the Town', Narrative Magazine, and the Huffington Post.
