alfred kantorowicz escaped nazi persecution and became one of the professors who helped modernize dentistry in turkey.
and there's another interesting detail: he was personally called to dolmabahçe palace in 1936 to help treat ataturk's dental problems.
he wasn't ataturk's regular dentist, but imagine escaping a concentration camp and a few years later being asked to treat the founder and president of turkey.
