Abstract:

Papers of Louis Lochner, a prominent foreign correspondent, writer, and news commentator, who wrote for the Associated Press (1924-1946) and published several books and numerous articles and short pieces. Lochner's area of expertise was German affairs, and he witnessed and reported on many of the most important events during the fall of the Weimar Republic, the rise of the National Socialists, World War II, and the return of peace. Most of Lochner's long and varied career in journalism and broadcasting is well documented, including his interviews with German leaders such as Adolf Hitler, Paul von Hindenburg, Joseph Goebbels, Hermann Goering, and others.
