About the Author

FELIX SALTEN -1869 - 1945:

His Jewish family moved to Vienna just weeks after his birth on 6 September 1869, as Siegmund Salzmann. (Many Jews immigrated to the city during the late 19th century because Vienna had granted full citizenship to Jews in 1867.) Of course, at the time of his birth Budapest and Vienna were both part of the Austro-Hungarian empire. Bambi was an allegory of Nazi persecution in a grimly ironic woodland paradise.
