Baldur von Schirach

Baldur Benedikt von Schirach was a Nazi youth leader later convicted of crimes against humanity. He was the head of the HitlerJugend and later Gauleiter and Reichsstatthalter of Vienna.

Schirach was born in Berlin, the youngest of four children of theatre director Rittmeister Carl Baily Norris von Schirach and his American wife Emma Middleton Lynah Tillou . A member of the noble Schirach family, of Wendish West Slavic origins, three of his four grandparents were from the United States, chiefly from Pennsylvania. Through his mother, Schirach was a descendant of Thomas Heyward, Jr. and an indirect descendant of Arthur Middleton, two signatories of the United States Declaration of Independence. English was the first language he learned at home and he did not learn to speak German until the age of five. He had two sisters, Viktoria and Rosalind von Schirach, and a brother, Karl Benedict von Schirach. His brother committed suicide in 1919 at the age of 19.
