Writer, Nobel laureate, and human rights leader Elie Wiesel is known the world over as “a messenger to mankind” and a powerful voice on behalf of the oppressed. A dynamic teacher and author, Wiesel has used his own experience of the Holocaust to defend human rights and strive to ensure real and lasting international peace. Boston University Professor Wiesel is the author of more than 50 books including the extraordinary memoir Night, published in 1956 and read by millions. His latest book, Hostage, is a novel about the legacy of the Holocaust and the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Join Wiesel for an important conversation as he shares his wisdom on the power of memory and the desire for resolution.
