<p>My conversation with Elie Wiesel -- Holocaust survivor, author, and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize -- was recorded in 2013 for the 20th anniversary of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial and Museum. Our wide-ranging conversation includes memories of his childhood village in Hungary, his experience in the Nazi death camps, and his reflections on humor and friendship.</p>
<p>The Nobel Committee, when awarding Wiesel the Peace Prize, stated:&nbsp;"Wiesel is a messenger to mankind: his message is one of peace, atonement and human dignity . . . ." The Committee cited Wiesel's "belief that the forces fighting evil in the world can be victorious . . . ." &nbsp;</p>
<p>I like to think Wavemaker Conversations is where curiosity meets hope. &nbsp;And I believe that this conversation with Elie Wiesel takes us to that place.</p>
