In the 1930s, the couple Hettie and Günter Oskar Dyhrenfurth accomplished two sensational expeditions in the Himalayas. For their achievements, the Jewish-born climbers, to the chagrin of the Nazis, were honored at the Olympic Games in Berlin with the gold medal for mountaineering. Their son Norman, now 90 years old, for the first time tells everything he knows about the saga of his extraordinary family.
