A Nazi prison camp survivor, Ziering wrote a play shortly before his death in 2000 about a high-ranking Jewish police officer in Riga who decided to take his daughter's life rather than let her be deported by the Nazis. This is the text of the play and responses to it from rabbis and ethicists, philosophers and historians, educators and teachers, Jews and Christians
