A boy of seven when the Nazi German army captured his home town of Bialystok, Poland, Leo Melamed fled with his parents, eventually coming to the U.S. Among the incredible successes in his life, Melamed also devoted his time to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, serving on the Museum's Council from 1991 - 2005. He played a leadership role in the creation of the Museum's Committee on Conscience, which addresses on-going threats of genocide and related crimes against humanity. He speaks about why he, as a survivor, feels the COC is a critical part of the Museum's mandate.
