Biographical History
Leon Zeitlin was born in Memel, East Prussia (today Klaipėda, Lithuania), in 1876. He obtained a doctorate in economics and served on the Reich Economic Council ( Reichswirtschaftsrat ) from 1920-1932. Later, from 1928-1932, he also held office as a liberal-democratic representative on the Prussian Diet ( Preussischer Landtag ). When the National Socialists took hold of the German government, he was forced to give up his post and emigrated to London, England. In exile he took up advocacy for several human rights causes, including improved Jewish-Christian relations, and wrote extensively for several economics journals. In 1962 he published the book Life's value in cash . He died in London in 1967.
