Saul Sorrin papers 

Saul Sorrin (1919-1995) was recruited to work for the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration (UNRRA). Sorrin initially worked as a supply officer based at the Neu Freimann camp outside of Munich before becoming area director of the Munich region in 1946. He oversaw the closing of the Neu Freimann camp when UNRRA transferred its operation to the International Refugee Organization (IRO) in 1947. As area director for the IRO, he took over responsibility for the Föhrenwald DP camp and the Geretsried transit camp and, later, the Feldafing camp. He returned to the United States in 1950 where he settled in Milwaukee.
