Paul Zucker

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul Zucker (August 14, 1888, Berlin - February 14, 1971, New York) was a German-born architect, art historian, art critic and author. From 1919 - 1935, he practiced architecture in Berlin.^[1]

In 1943 he assisted the war effort by helping the US air-force construct the German Village (Dugway proving ground), a simulation of German working class dwellings to be used to perfect fire-bombing techniques on German residential areas.
