Jewish scientist or not? edit
Family background and early life
Otto Herzberg-Frankel was born in Vienna on 4 November 1900, the third of four sons of a prominent and wealthy lawyer. Frankel was a relatively uncommon name in Vienna at that time, but to differentiate himself from a more traditionally Jewish branch of the family, Otto's paternal grandfather, a well-known author, added Herzberg from his mother's name to become Herzberg-Frankel. After his father's death, Otto chose to drop the hyphen and revert to Frankel. https://www.science.org.au/fellowship/fellows/biographical-memoirs/otto-frankel-1900-1998 Чтогдекогдазнающий (talk) 12:41, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
