Lucy Schildkret Dawidowicz was an American historian who focused on modern Jewish history, particularly the Holocaust. Her early interests in poetry and literature shifted to a profound engagement with history due to events in Europe. Influenced by the era and her mentor, she dedicated herself to Jewish history, learning Yiddish and working at the YIVO in Wilno. Her personal experiences with antisemitism in Poland and subsequent work with Holocaust survivors deeply shaped her perspectives on Polish-Jewish relations and the destruction of Eastern European Jewry.
