Rudolf Semmler
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rudolf Semler (born 1913) was a journalist who worked as an aide to Joseph Goebbels in the Reich Ministry of Popular Enlightenment and Propaganda. In 1947, his diary was published in London under the title Goebbels: The Man Next to Hitler with the publisher John Westhouse.[1] It covers the period from December 1940 to the end of the war and is a valuable source for historians of Nazi Germany.[2] In the book the name of the author is wrongly given as Rudolf Semmler instead of Semler. He started his job with Goebbels in January 1941.
