Eyewitness To History

Armin Lehmann's unique place in history, and his lifetime commitment to peace, tolerance and understanding.

This film won Gary Lester a Best Director award at the Daytona Beach Film Festival. It also screened at the Treasure Coast Film Festival, The Non-Violence International Film Festival in Canada, and was subtitled in Korean for an audience in Busan, South Korea.

For most of his 80 years, Armin dedicated his life to non-violence, peace, empathy, and tolerance.

Armin was born May 23, 1928 in Waldtrudering, a borough of Munich, Germany. At ten years old, a law made it mandatory that Armin join the Hitler Youth.

By 16, during the final hours of the Third Reich, he found himself assigned as Hitler's last courier, a story he recounted in his book In Hitler's Bunker.

By 17, Armin had learned of the Holocaust, and he made a conscientious decision to dedicate the rest of his life to world peace and tolerance.

Armin traveled to 150 countries with his message, wrote best-selling books, appeared with Oliver North on War Stories, and produced, wrote, and appeared in our award-winning film, Eyewitness To History.

In his free e-book, Tomorrow's World, Armin offers his hope for the world -- a hope expressed in his original poetry, along with illustrations by children who will inherit "tomorrow's world."

Armin's Ode To Peace can be seen on YouTube.
