In 1999, for the first time in twenty-nine years of conferences, the Annual
Scholars’ Conference on the Holocaust and the Churches presented a plenary
on women and the Holocaust. As co-chairs of this plenary, Dr. Myrna
Goldenberg and I decided to feature recent scholarly books on the subject
and to entitle the session “Women’s Holocaust History: Books in Print.” The
occasion was historic beyond the fact that the subject was deemed important enough for a plenary, because, by early 1999, a core of “books in print” had
made possible a session with such a title.
