About the Author

was a child when World War II broke out in his native Germany. His family were gypsies transported to concentration camps and incarcerated in unbearable conditions, the victims of racial hatred as fierce as that aimed at the Jews by Hitler's forces. "Gypsy in Auschwitz" was told to Ulrich Enzenberger late in Rosenberg's life. It is his only book. Ulrich Enzenberger was asked to write Rosenberg's story for him, but having taken tape recordings of the gypsy’s colorful accounts he chose to leave the words much as the man who was "a gypsy in Auschwitz" spoke them
