Inge Deutschkron (23 August 1922 – 9 March 2022) was a German and Israeli journalist and author. She experienced the Nazi regime as a girl and young woman, living in Berlin first working in a factory, then hiding with her mother. After World War II, she travelled the world, and became a journalist. In 1968, she was hired as a correspondent by the Israeli newspaper Maariv. After reporting from the Frankfurt Auschwitz trials in 1963, she became an Israeli citizen and moved to Tel Aviv in 1972. She worked as a journalist until 1988, dedicated to international and Middle East politics. She lived as a freelance writer in Tel Aviv and Berlin, where she was active keeping alive the memory of the Holocaust, especially the silent heroes who helped Jews during the time. Her 1978 autobiography I Wore the Yellow Star was adapted to a stage version by the Grips-Theater in Berlin. Life Deutschkron was born in Finsterwalde, the daughter of Ella and Martin Deutschkron. Her father was a Jewish secondary school teacher, who moved the family to Berlin in 1927, but by 1933 was fired by the Nazi regime. He was able to take refuge in Great Britain in 1939, leaving his wife and daughter in Berlin. Between 1941 and 1943, Deutschkron worked for Otto Weidt in his brush workshop for mainly deaf and blind workers (a large proportion of whom were Jewish), and it was with his help that Deutschkron managed to evade deportation. From January 1943, she lived illegally in Berlin, hiding with her mother in order to survive. After World War II, Deutschkron and her mother moved to London in 1946 joining her father, where she studied foreign languages and became a secretary to the Socialist International organisation. From 1954 she traveled to India, Burma, Nepal and Indonesia before eventually returning in 1955 to Germany, where she worked in Bonn as a freelance journalist. In 1958, the Israeli newspaper Maariv hired her as a correspondent, and she acted as an observer for Maariv at the Frankfurt Auschwitz trials in 1963. She became an Israeli citizen in 1966. Moving to Tel Aviv in 1972, Deutschkron was editor of Maariv until 1988, dedicated to international and Middle East politics. She returned to Berlin in December 1988 for the stage adaptation of her 1978 autobiography I Wore the Yellow Star at the Grips-Theater, where it was titled Ab heute
