Newspaper publisher, politician
|
Gerhart Seger (16 November 1896 – 21 January 1967) was a German social democratic newspaper publisher, politician and pacifist. From October 1930 to March 1933 he was a member of the Reichstag. Due to the rejection of the Enabling Act by the Social Democrats, he was among those Reichstag deputies who were persecuted by the Nazis, arrested and sent to concentration camps. In 1934 he fled to Prague, where he wrote a sensational account of his experiences in the Oranienburg concentration camp. Shortly afterwards he emigrated to the United States, where he became politically active and known as a lecturer.
