| Oskar Schindler was a German businessman and industrialist who protected Jews from Nazi persecution during World War II (1939-1945). After the war, his efforts to prevent Jews working at his factory in Poland from being killed or sent to concentration camps were praised by the governments of Germany and Israel. His story was detailed in the 1993 film Schindler’s List. | ||||||
