Biography
Eddy de Wind (né Eliazar de Wind; 6 February 1916 â 27 September 1987) was a Dutch-Jewish Holocaust survivor, physician, psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, and the author of the memoir âEindstation Auschwitz. Mijn verhaal vanuit het kamp (1943â1945)', which was published in the United States in 2020 under the title Last Stop Auschwitz. De Wind was the first, and perhaps the only doctor who, after passing his medical exam, voluntarily went to the Westerbork transit camp for Jews to assist the deportees there.
