Lea Rosh ((:ˈʁoːs); born Edith Renate Ursula Rosh on 1 October 1936 in Berlin〔: "In ihrer Geburtsurkunde steht Edith Renate Ursula Rosh."〕) is a German television journalist, publicist, entrepreneur and political activist. Rosh was the first female journalist to manage a public broadcasting service in Germany and in the 70's the first anchorwoman of Kennzeichen D, a major political television program. She has been a member of the SPD since 1968. While she received major public awards, e.g. the Bundesverdienstkreuz, Rosh is either a controversial and influential figure in the local political scene of Berlin. By friend and foe, the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe in Berlin is seen as her main and personal achievement. Lea Rosh's husband died in 2008. The late Jakob Schulze-Rohr was an architect and building contractor in Berlin and a brother of the film director Peter Schulze-Rohr. Rosh maintains a PR-Agency in Berlin and is lecturing at ''University of Management and Communication (FH) Potsdam'' in the fields of Moderating and Media training. The sociologist Y. Michal Bodemann has criticized Rosh as an example of "professional pseudo Jews", that is non-Jewish persons "who over-identify with Judaism."〔Piritta Kleiner, ''Jüdisch, Jung und Jetzt: Identitäten und Lebenswelten junger Juden in München'', p. 57, Herbert Utz Verlag, 2010, ISBN 3831640033〕 ==Background== Born and raised by a Protestant family in Berlin, her father was killed in the winter of 1944 as a Wehrmacht soldier in Poland. At age 18 she left the Lutheran Church in Germany, she describes herself as an atheist. She began to use the first name ''Lea'' instead of her given name of Edith, describing the name Edith, which is of Old English origin, as "horribly German".〔(). According to Eike Geisel's book 'Triumph des guten Willens' (Triumph of good will) her name change were an interesting paradoxon - the first name Lea sounding Sephardim but Edith, her original name having been fashionable with German jews trying to 'germanize' themselves in the early 20th century, Geisel referring e.g. to Edith Stein〕 Rosh worked at various German radio and television services, including the Sender Freies Berlin and the ZDF. From 1991 to 1997 she was appointed director of the Hannover studio of the Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR), being the first woman to hold a comparable post in the history of German broadcasting.〔 Motivated by historian Eberhard Jäckel, she was one of the primary forces who lobbied from 1988 onwards for over 17 years for the construction of the widely controversial Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, completed in May 2005. She has been chairman of the „Förderkreis zur Errichtung eines Denkmals für die ermordeten Juden Europas“ (''Society for the Promotion of Raising a Monument to the Murdered Jews of Europe'') since 1995, and vice chairman of the board of trustees of the „Stiftung Denkmal für die ermordeten Juden Europas“ (''Foundation for the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe'') since 1999. Since 2007 Lea Rosh holds a post as a lecturer at the ''UMC Potsdam-University of Management and Communication (FH)'' for the subjects moderation and media training.〔 In 1990, Rosh and Eberhard Jäckel were awarded the Geschwister-Scholl-Preis for their joint work, ''Der Tod ist ein Meister aus Deutschland''.〔(Geschwister-Scholl-Preis » Preisträger 1990 )〕 In 2006, Rosh was awarded the Bundesverdienstkreuz.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bundesverdienstkreuz: Wowereit ehrte Lea Rosh )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lea Rosh」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
