Biographical History
Born in Frankenthal, in the Palatinate, on November 5, 1885, Ludwig Marum studied law at Heidelberg and Munich and practiced in Karlsruhe. A member of the Sozialdemokratische Partei Deutschlands (SPD), he represented his party in the Landtag of Baden from 1914 to 1928. From 1918 to 1919 he served as Minister of Justice. Marum was a member of the Reichstag from 1928 until 1933. On May 16, 1933 he was arrested and deported to Kislau concentration camp, where he was murdered on March 29, 1934.
Elisabeth Lunau, neé Marum, was born in Germany in 1911. She was the daughter of Ludwig Marum, who served as a Minister in the Weimar republic, and who was killed by the Nazi government in 1934.
She was one of the last German Jews to earn a law degree before WW II, but did not have a chance to practice due to the new law barring Jews from that profession.
Elisabeth Lunau left Germany in 1936 and went to France to join other members of her family. There she was interned in a number of concentration camps but was released and came to New York in 1941.
In New York she became executive housekeeper at a number of Manhattan hotels. She was the author of two books Ludwig Marum. Briefe aus dem Konzenrationslager Kislau, a collection of her fathers letters, and Auf der Flucht in Frankreich : "Boches ici, juifs là-bas" - der Briefwechsel einer deutschen Familie im Exil 1939–1942, a collection of her and her relatives letters. She died in New York on June 5th, 1998.
