Sigmund Sobolewski
Sigmund Sobolewski (, "Zygmunt Sobolewski"; May 11, 1923 – August 7, 2017) was a Polish Catholic Holocaust survivor and activist. He was the 88th prisoner to enter Auschwitz on the first transport to the concentration camp on June 14, 1940, and remained a prisoner for four and a half years during World War II. He was an opponent of Holocaust denial and was notable as a non-Jewish victim and witness who confronted neo-Nazis, antisemites and Holocaust deniers. His life and memories as a survivor are recounted in "Prisoner 88: The Man in Stripes" by Rabbi Roy Tanenbaum.
