CELBRATE WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH WITH BETH EL BROTHERHOOD
AND WOMEN OF REFORM JUDAISM


TheConfidante-cover.png

As Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s special envoy to Europe in World War II, Anna Rosenberg went where the president couldn’t go. She 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 guided the direction of the G.I. Bill of Rights and the Manhattan Project.

Though Anna Rosenberg had emerged from modest immigrant beginnings and was equipped with only a high school education, she was the real power behind national policies critical to America winning the war and prospering afterward. Astonishingly, her story remains largely forgotten.
