Siggi B. Wilzig, born Siegbert Wilzig (March 11, 1926 – January 7, 2003), was a survivor of concentration camps Auschwitz and Mauthausen who arrived in the U.S. in 1947 with little money and only a grade school education. By the time of his death in 2003, he had created an empire in oil and banking with more than $4 billion in assets. Wilzig was a frequent lecturer on the importance of Holocaust memory, an outspoken opponent of Holocaust denial, and instrumental in building the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C.
