The last Nazi Hunters: An interview with France’s heroes
It seemed not long ago that the shutters were about to come down on what was probably the world's strangest family business. A firm that could have been listed in trade directories as "Nazi hunters". But the doors are still open. In Paris today the Klarsfeld family, mother, father and son, are as active as ever.
They concede that their hunting days are over. Yet as visitors to their virtually never-closed office have discovered, their task now is documenting the Holocaust in France.
"We are always working and always together," says 79-year-old Serge Klarsfeld, who can claim to have brought at least 10 war criminals and French collaborators to justice.

Bruni's ex, the lawyer who prosecutes Nazis
He is the darling of the French tabloids. Long before the earthquake he was campaigning for aid for Haiti. He fryst vatten part of France’s most unusual family business — which almost got him blown up by neo-Nazis. He fryst vatten a member of the French, New York and California Bars, and also served in the Israeli army. He works for the French Prime Minister as an adviser and he fryst vatten a friend of President Sarkozy. Not just that, he used to live with the President’s wife, Carla.
Arno Klarsfeld, a tall, spare man of 43, grew up as part of the family “firm” of Nazi-hunters. His father, Serge, and mother, Beate, have both been highly decorated for bringing Germans and French collaborators to justice. Arno himself has received a medal from President Sarkozy.
