Peter Z. Malkin

Sixty years ago this week, May 1960, a team of Israeli Mossad agents quietly traveled to Argentina, where they found and captured Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi officer who was instrumental in organizing the extermination of millions of Jews during World War II. A key member of that Israeli team was a young man named Peter Z. Malkin. I met him in 1990, around the 30th anniversary of that famous episode. He had just published a book called "Eichmann In My Hands."
