#OTD My great-great-aunt Mildred Harnack was beheaded on Hitler’s direct order. Born in Milwaukee, she graduated from the University of Wisconsin & moved to Germany to pursue a PhD. As an American grad student in Berlin, she witnessed a rapid increase in Hitler's popularity. 1/12

#OTD Sophie Scholl, age 21, was executed by guillotine at Stadelheim Prison in Munich. A key member of the White Rose resistance group, she sought to overthrow the Nazi regime. My biography of this immeasurably courageous young woman will be published by Random House in 2026.
