Bruning Dies at 84 A Turning Point Figure in Weimar
Heinrich Bruning, Germanys former chancellor and rival to Hitler, died at 84 in Vermont after a life shaped by the collapse of the Weimar Republic. His 1930s efforts to ease peace terms and curb inflation failed, leading to his 1932 resignation. Bruning fled, taught in the United States for 16 years, and rarely returned to Germany, leaving a potential different history untold.
