Jerzy Zielezinski (1914 - 1982)
Jerzy Zielezinski, painter and artist, was born in Poland. He was arrested as a political prisoner and sent to the Warsaw Ghetto by the German occupation authorities and was ultimately transported to the concentration camp at Dachau where he remained until the camp was liberated. In 1946, he produced two portfolios of drawings based on sketches depicting his experiences both at Warsaw and Dachau. The first, K. Z. Album (Prisoner Album), presents his visual account of the Warsaw Ghetto, while the second, Twenty-four Drawings from the Concentration Camps in Germany documents his observations at this notorious camp. Zielezinski made his way to the United States, where he changed his name to George Ziel, and enjoyed a highly successful career. He worked principally as a cover artist whose vivid and highly stylized paintings adorned the covers of many of the pulp fiction paperbacks published in the 1940s and 1950s. George Ziel died in Connecticut.
