Dovid Katz (Yiddish: הירשע־דוד כ״ץ, also הירשע־דוד קאַץ, Hirshe-Dovid Kats, [ˌhirʃɛ-ˈdɔvid ˈkɑt͡s], born 9 May 1956) is an American-born Vilnius-based scholar, author, and educator specializing in Yiddish language and literature, Lithuanian-Jewish culture, and the Holocaust in Eastern Europe. In recent years, he has been known for combating the so-called "Double Genocide" revision of Holocaust history which asserts a moral equivalence between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.[1] He is editor of the web journal Defending History which he founded in 2009.[2] He is known to spend part of each year at his home in North Wales. His website includes a list of his books,[3] of some articles by topic,[4] a record of recent work,[5] and a more comprehensive bibliography.[6]
