Born in Prussia to assimilated Jewish parents, she escaped from Hitler's Germany in 1933. Arendt is now best remembered for the storm of controversy that surrounded her 1963 \u003ci\u003eNew Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e series on the trial of Adolf Eichmann, a kidnapped Nazi war criminal. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Arendt's first book, \u003ci\u003eThe Origins of Totalitarianism\u003c\/i\u003e, single-handedly altered the way generations around the world viewed fascism and genocide. Her most famous work, \u003ci\u003eEichmann in Jerusalem\u003c\/i\u003e, created fierce debate that continues to this day, exacerbated by the posthumous discovery that she had been the lover of the philosopher and Nazi sympathizer Martin Heidegger. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In this comprehensive biography, Anne C. Heller tracks the source of Arendt's contradictions and achievements to her sense of being a \"conscious pariah\"--one of those rare people who doesn't \"lose confidence in ourselves if society does not approve us\" and will not \"pay any price\" to gain the acceptance of others.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnne C.
