Ted Comet, a Man Who Made History, Speaks to TABC About Kristallnacht

On Monday, November 13, TABC gathered together to honor the memory of those whose lives were forever changed due to Hitler’s enactment of “The Night of Broken Glass,” known as Kristallnacht. We were honored to hear from Ted Comet who was an executive at the Joint Distribution Committee, which helped to rehabilitate and support war orphans, including Elie Wiesel. His work with the JDC took him to many countries in order to rebuild their Jewish communities, such as USSR, Eastern Europe and Ethiopia. Comet was also the founder/chairman of the Celebrate Israel Parade.
