But modern day Nazis and white nationalists are just harmless wannabes, right?

Thank you, Times, for publishing the stories of these remarkable women. You are righting a wrong that has gone on too long--the act of making women disappear without a trace.

I appreciate this series of obituaries of women past, stunning stories all which could have escaped me and have not. Thank you.

Publishing these “catch up” obits is a wonderful idea. It reminds us that quite ordinary people can achieve heroic and wonderful things...and do not have to go about bragging about them.Please keep up this wonderful series.

These overlooked stories are fascinating, both for the personal and the historic details. Like reading a snapshot of history, arts and so many other things.
Another reason to have the NYT every day and all day. Thank you.

What an inspiring and courageous woman! She did an outstanding job of following her father’s wise advice.

Please continue these now needed obituaries; revealing the paramount importance of our moms, sisters, wives and grand mothers. Their importance, their humanity, should not go unrecognized.

One my favorite books of all times is Bella Fromm's Blood and Banquets, a Berlin Social Diary. I still don't know how she survived - she was a society writer who confronted officals and even an opera singer when the singer altered the words to fit the Nazi machine. She had a school friend-SS officer who gave her information and the heads-up on situations.
