A Biography of The German Dictator Adolf Hitler

Produced and directed By: Jack Haley Jr.
Commentary By: Mike Wallace

Byname Der Führer (German: "The Leader")

German dictator, born in Braunau, Upper Austria, the son of a minor customs official, originally called Schicklgruber. One of history's most brutal leaders, he converted Germany, a defeated nation, into a fully remilitarized society, and launched World War 2. With anti-Semitism and racism the cornerstone of his ideology and policies, he conquered and dominated most of Europe over five years, and ordered the deaths of millions of Jews and others whom he considered inferior (Untermenschen).

Hitler used tremendous forcefulness, charisma, oratory, and his ability to appeal to people's baser instincts to manipulate them. He rose at a time of defeat and disillusionment. His ‘Thousand-Year Reich’ lasted 12 years and three months.
