- Sigrid Schultz was a noted American reporter and war correspondent during the 1920s and 1930s, when women were rare in both print and broadcast journalism. She grew up speaking English, German, and French, among the artists, politicians and musicians who frequented the Schultz home. She attended the Sorbonne in Paris, where she graduated with a degree in international law. As a journalist, she spent about a quarter-century working in Germany, and her first-hand knowledge helped her to accurately predict Nazi Germany's threat to world peace. As Berlin bureau chief for the Chicago Tribune and broadcaster for the Mutual Broadcasting Network, she broke the news of the Hitler-Stalin pact in 1940.
She wrote columns warning of the Nazi takeover of the German government, factories, businesses and labor unions; concentration camps; and the hundreds of anti-Semitic laws being passed. She published her book Germany Will Try It Again, in 1944. Schultz accompanied the U.S. Army when it invaded Europe in June 1944 and reported on the liberation of France. She was also one of the first journalists to visit Buchenwald and she reported on the Nuremberg Trial.
