Biographical note Gerald Schwab (1925-2014) was born Gerd Abraham Schwab to David and Paula (d. 1995) Schwab in Freiburg, Germany. David Schwab owned a plumbing supply company that required travel to Switzerland. After the boycott of Jewish businesses in 1933, the family left Germany for Basel, Switzerland, and when the Swiss authorities did not permit them to stay, they moved just across the border into France so David could commute to his job in Basel and not give up his business. When the French government established restrictive limits on travel for German refugees, the family returned to Germany. They applied for affidavits to the United States and sent Gerald to be sheltered by a family near Zurich, Switzerland. The family immigrated together to the United States via Italy in 1940. Schwab was drafted into the U.S. Army in in 1943, and served with the 10th Mountain Division until he was transferred to an intelligence unit and assigned to the U.S. Detailed Interrogation Center, where he served as translator and interpreter. After his discharge in 1946, Schwab worked for the International Military Tribunal (IMT), where he continued to serve as translator and interpreter. He translated for the commission hearing evidence on the seven Nazi organizations under indictment by the IMT, and the hearings of the German High Command and General Staff of the Wehrmacht. Schwab remained in Nuremberg until the defendants were executed, and then moved to Berlin to work for the U.S. Chief of Consul. In 1947, Schwab returned to the U.S. and began a long career in the U.S. Foreign Service. His book The Day the Holocaust Began: The Odyssey of Herschel Grynszpan was published in 1990 and his book OSS Agents in Hitler's Heartland: Destination Innsbruck was published in 1996.
