 Georg Bernhard (1928) | |
| Born | October 20 1875 |
| Died | February 10 1944 |
Georg Bernhard (born October 20, 1875 in Berlin; died February 10, 1944 in New York) was a left-liberal German journalist of Jewish descent who became active against National Socialism early on. He had to emigrate in 1933 and was the founder of an important exile newspaper.
Life
Bernhard's father, Hermann, worked as a merchant and his mother, Helene, was born Soberski. Georg Bernhard had completed an apprenticeship in banking and became a business journalist. In 1899 he married Fritze Mühsam and had a child in 1901 called Stefanie Ruth who later became an actress. In 1912 they had another daughter named Eva Marie. In 1939, while in exile in Paris, Bernhard married the painter Gertrud Landsberger.
From 1898 to 1903, Bernhard held a position as trade editor at the Berliner Zeitung, which belonged to Ullstein. At the same time, he studied law and political science. From 1904 to 1925, Bernhard published the business newspaper Plutus, of which he was the founder and owner. From 1908 he was employed in the publishing management at Ullstein. When Ullstein-Verlag bought the Vossische Zeitung in 1914, Bernhard was appointed second editor-in-chief until 1920, alongside the previously sole editor-in-chief, Hermann Bachmann. From 1916 he also gave lectures as a lecturer at the Berlin Commercial College. From 1920 to 1930, Bernhard was the sole editor-in-chief of the Vossische Zeitung. Bernhard shaped the newspaper into a left-liberal paper. He advocated the expansion of democracy and - despite the Treaty of Versailles - decidedly for an understanding with France. He was involved in Jewish associations. His discussion style was very decisive and he didn't hold back his opinions. This also made Bernhard a preferred target of anti-Semitic agitation.
