1. We are pleased to inform you that the Hon. Martin Frost, U.S. Representative from Texas, has joined the Advisory Committee of the Wyman Institute.



2. A Father's Day essay by Wyman Institute director Dr. Rafael Medoff and associate director Dov Fischer, Esq., "Their Father Was an Unsung Hero of the Holocaust," appeared in the Norwich (Connecticut) Bulletin on June 15 and the Jewish Bulletin of Northern California on June 13. It described the efforts of the Bingham family of Connecticut to raise public awareness about the heroism of their father, Hiram Bingham IV. As a U.S. consular official in France in 1940-1941, Bingham worked with Varian Fry, in defiance of the State Department, to provide visas and other protective documents to refugees. Marc Chagall, Hannah Arendt, and Lion Feuchtwanger were among the individuals whom Fry and Bingham saved.
