Operation Paper Clip ‘Whitewashed’ Nazi Existence
The Breman Museum’s Founding Archivist Pens Book About Former Nazis Helping the U.S. Space Program
Atlanta Jewish Times review by Lou Ladinsky
I had just finished watching the intense Showtime drama “Hunters,” which dealt with a group of people hunting Nazis across America, when I began reading Whitewashed by Sandy Berman, founding archivist of The William Breman Jewish Heritage Museum. As soon as I read the synopsis and saw the similar theme to “Hunters,” in regard to Operation Paperclip, I volunteered to write a review.
Once I started reading the book, I found it hard to put down. The characters felt true-to-life around the real historical events of the times. It left me with a hunger to learn more about Operation Paperclip and to understand the dividing line between science, with its race for technology, and the balance of humankind.
