history: Otto Lehmann-Russbueldt (1873-1964) was a German writer and pacifist activist. When the Nazis came to power he fled to the Netherlands and later to England. After the Second World War he returned to Berlin. He received several awards for his engagement for peace and was shortlisted twice for the Nobel Peace Prize. See Röder, W. and H.
