Mr. Sandler's Jewish History class hosts Samuel Biaustein to discuss the history of Nazi Art Looting

On Thursday, Mr. Sandler had lawyer, Samuel Blaustein, a partner at Dunnington, Batholow & Miller give a talk on the history of Nazi Art Looting. Mr. Blaustein represented the descendants of Fritz Grunbaum, an Austrian Jewish cabaret performer who died in Dachu. He told the class the dramatic story of how he won the legal case and the judge ordered the two Egon Schiele paintings worth over a million dollars be returned to Grunbaum’s family.
