Holocaust encyclopedia editors Geoffrey Megargee and Martin Dean in the news

United States Holocaust Memorial Museum researchers Geoffrey Megargee and Martin Dean have recently been interviewed by The New York Times, The Independent, NBC Nightly News, and The Huffington Post (video below) about their work documenting Nazi camps and ghettos. The New York Times reports, "When the research began in 2000, Dr. Megargee said he expected to find perhaps 7,000 Nazi camps and ghettos, based on postwar estimates. But the numbers kept climbing — first to 11,500, then 20,000, then 30,000, and now 42,500."

The results of this Holocaust research are presented in two of seven planned volumes of The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum Encyclopedia of Camps and Ghettos, 1933-1945. The result of years of work by the Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, these encyclopedias describe the universe of camps and ghettos that the Nazis and their allies operated, from Norway to North Africa and from France to Russia.
