Arthur Morse was an American journalist, author, and television producer known for his investigative work on the Holocaust and American responses to it. He gained prominence with his 1968 book 'While Six Million Died: A Chronicle of American Apathy,' published by Random House, which exposed the U.S. government's and media's knowledge of Nazi extermination camps and their failure to act despite receiving reports as early as 1942. Drawing from declassified State Department documents and other archives, Morse chronicled bureaucratic indifference, including restrictions on Jewish immigration and the bombing of Auschwitz, attributing it to antisemitism, isolationism, and political priorities during World War II. The book was widely reviewed and cited by organizations like the World Jewish Congress for highlighting American complicity through inaction. Morse worked as a producer for CBS News and other networks, contributing to programs such as 'General Electric Theater,' 'How Good Are Our Schools? Dr. Conant Reports,' and 'The Lost Class of '59.' His media career informed his research, as he accessed wartime broadcasts and government records while producing documentaries. Later works included critiques of media coverage, solidifying his role in Holocaust remembrance and media accountability discussions.
