Shalom, I'm sorry to inform you that Dan Wyman's mother, Eva Goldschmidt Wyman, z"l (1934-2021) passed away on Saturday, August 8 in Bloomington, Illinois at age 87 after a long illness. Dan is an antiquarian jewish bookseller who has been an active supporter of AJL for many years.
Eva was the author of two books, including *ESCAPING HITLER: A JEWISH HAVEN IN CHILE* (U of Alabama, 2013). It was originally published in Spanish as "*Huyendo del infierno nazi: la inmigración judío-alemana hacia Chile en los años treinta*" (Santiago, 2008) and documents the flight of German-Jewish refugees, including that of herself and her parents, to Chile during the 1930s. Notes of condolence may be sent to Dan at his home: 1279 Jefferson Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11221. May the family be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem. With sorrow, Jackie -- Jackie Ben-Efraim *"Although the books had changed, I the reader had not." **Micha Yosef Berdichevsky 1865-1921* Special Collections Librarian Ostrow Library American Jewish University
