When Siggi Wilzig came to the United States after surviving the horrors of the Holocaust, he was determined to love life and make the best for himself and his family. Wilzig became an unstoppable force, breaking into the anti-Semitic banking and oil industries, winning hearts with his reckless generosity and wicked humor, and helping to create the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
