Ronald W. Zweig
Ronald W. Zweig is an Israeli historian specializing in Hebrew and Judaic studies, with particular reference to the British Mandate in Palestine.〔Barkat, Amiram. ("A major in Israel" ), ''Haaretz'', April 8, 2005.〕 He is currently the Marilyn and Henry Taub Professor of Israel Studies at New York University (NYU).〔
Zweig is the author of a number of books on Jewish and Israel studies, including ''The Gold Train: The Destruction of the Jews and the Looting of Hungary'' (2002), the story of a train run by the Nazis, the so-called "Hungarian gold train," that left Budapest, Hungary during the Second World War, heading for a Nazi-controlled area in the Alps. The train was carrying gold, diamonds, and wedding rings that the Nazis had stolen from the Hungarian Jewish community. It was intercepted by the American military before it could reach its destination, and the fate of its contents has been the subject of speculation ever since. Zweig acted as a consultant to the U.S. Department of Justice on a related lawsuit—Rosner, et al. v. United States of America—which alleged U.S. military malfeasance.〔(NYU's "Zweig Available for Comment On 'Gold Train' Settlement" ), New York University press release, accessed January 22, 2010.〕
