Yehuda Bauer (Hebrew: יהודה באואר; born 1926) is an Israeli historian and scholar of the Holocaust. He is a professor of Holocaust Studies at the Avraham Harman Institute of Contemporary Jewry at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.As a native citizen of Prague, Czechoslovakia, Bauer was fluent at an early age in Czech, Slovak and German, later learning Hebrew, Yiddish, English, French and Polish. His father had strong Zionist convictions and during the 1930s tried to raise money to get his family to the British Mandate of Palestine. On the day Nazi Germany annexed Czezhoslovakia, March 15, 1939, the family migrated to Palestine, managing to get past Nazi officials on a train which slipped them over the border into Poland, from which they moved, via Romania, to Palestine.
