Biography of the Author

Robin O'Neil: of Irish descent but very much an Englishman by nature. A former police major crimes investigator who worked at the sharp end of major criminal investigations in the United Kingdom and Central Europe. Formerly of Scotland Yard, the Metropolitan and Home Counties Police service until taking up the challenge of Academia.

After obtaining his Masters and Doctorate at University College London, under Sir Martin Gilbert and the late professor John Klier, he specialised in investigating Nazi war crimes. A Russian speaker his work also takes him to the Baltic States and USSR. He has launched a number of major investigations into the perpetrators of the Holocaust, particularly those individuals who carried out and engineered the destruction of European Jewry in Lithuania and Poland. His past police service and rank enabled him to look closely into the characters of the SS and death camp commandants of Belzec, Sobibor and Treblinka.

Robin O'Neil is universally acknowledged as the central research source for the Schindler story. A historical consultant to several TV documentaries and radio broadcasts in the UK and abroad, he is an honoured guest of Schindler's home town, Svitavy in the Czech Republic, and is a regular lecturer at universities in the United Kingdom, United States, Israel and Eastern Europe.

In his spare time and to counteract the intensity of holocaust research he diversifies his interests into the Habsburg dynasty of 19^th century Vienna and Shakespeare's England. He is currently engaged researching the Paston family correspondence from Norfolk 1420-1510 and associated English texts of that time.
