Although Albert was a German citizen, he

           spent less and less time there. He was deeply
           worried by the anti-Semitism, or hatred of

           Jews, that was being stirred up by Hitler. He
           had built a house in the quiet German village

           of  Caputh in 1929, but between his travels
           and his work at other universities, he wasn’t

           there much. By 1931, two of his positions meant
           he had to be either in Pasadena, California or

           Oxford, England.
               In 1932, Albert met a man named Abraham

           Flexner, who informed him about a new




             Albert’s summer house
             in the German village
             of Caputh, 2005.
