Quentin James Reynolds (April 11, 1902 – March 17, 1965) was a journalist and World War II war correspondent. As associate editor at Collier's Weekly from 1933 to 1945, Reynolds averaged twenty articles a year. He also published twenty-five books, including The Wounded Don’t Cry, London Diary, Dress Rehearsal, and Courtroom, a biography of lawyer Samuel Leibowitz. He also published an autobiography, By Quentin Reynolds. Katz and Aldouby were both ex-members of an Israeli underground movement, devoted for many years to the compilation of the most complete dossier of Eichmann in existence. Photographs, affidavits, testimonies, were gathered together; secret Nazi documents, even Eichmann’s tape-recorded ‘memoirs’, were traced, ‘borrowed’, copied and studied – and, on the capture of their subject, were placed in the hands of Quentin Reynolds. The result is this most authoritative and unique book. A biography which traces the life from schooldays to a well guarded prison in Israel of an insignificant Nazi who became Hitler's Minister of Death. More

Randall Robinson (born July 6, 1941) is an African-American lawyer, author and activist, noted as the founder of TransAfrica. He is known particularly for his impassioned opposition to apartheid, and for his advocacy on behalf of Haitian immigrants and Haitian president Jean-Bertrand Aristide. Robinson was a civil rights attorney in Boston (1971–75) before he worked for U.S. Congressman Bill Clay (1975) and as administrative assistant to Congressman Charles Diggs (1976). He was a Ford fellow. Robinson founded the TransAfrica Forum in 1977, which-according to its mission statement-serves as a "major research, educational and organizing institution for the African-American community, offering constructive analysis concerning U.S. policy as it affects Africa and the African Diaspora (African-Americans and West Indians who can trace their heritage back to the dispersion of Africans that occurred as a result of the Transatlantic slave trade) in the Caribbean and Latin America." He served in the capacity as TransAfrica's president until 2001. During that period he gained visibility for his political activism, organizing sit-ins at the South African embassy in order to protest the Afrikaner government's racial policy of discrimination against black South Africans, a personal hunger strike aimed at pressuring the United States government into restoring Jean-Bertrand Aristide to power after the short-lived coup by General Raoul Cédras.
