Sylvain Bromberger (1924-2018) in the NYT “Lives They Lived” issue for 2018

Here.

ADDENDUM:   There's more about how the Bromberger family was saved by the remarkably courageous Aristides de Sousa Mendes, including remarks from Professor Bromberger, here.  (Thanks to David Velleman for the pointer, who tells me that his father's story is also available at the same site.  Prof. Velleman notes that his father's "'testimony' wasn't written for the De Sousa Mendes website. It was written for our children when they were young — which explains some of the condescending parenthetical explanations.")
