'''Хайрам "Гарри" Бригем IV''' (Hiram "Harry" Bingham IV; 17 июля 1903 - 12 января 1988) был [[США|американским]] дипломатом. Он служил в качестве вице-консула в [[Марсель|Марселе]], [[Франция]], во время [[Вторая мировая война|Второй мировой войны]] и помог более чем 2500 евреям бежать из  оккупированной [[Нацизм|нацистами]] Франции.

== Ранние годы ==
+
-
Бинэм был одним из семи сыновей бывшего губернатора штата Коннектикут и сенатора США  Хайрама Бингхэма III и его первой жены, Альфреды Митчелл, наследницы "Тиффани и Ко" - фирмы её деда Чарльза Л. Тиффани.
+
-
 
+
-
Его прадед Хайрам Бингхэм I и дед Хайрам Бингхэм II были первыми миссионерами в Королевстве Гавайи. Хирам Бингхэм III был первооткрывателем руины инкского города Мачу-Пикчу.
+
-
 
+
-
Бригем учился в престижной школе Гротон и окончил Йельский университет в 1925 году.<ref name="Yale">{{cite web |url=http://www.yalealumnimagazine.com/issues/2006_05/where.html |title=Civil Disobedience |author=Bryan Mark Rigg |publisher=Yale Alumni Magazine |date=May/June 2006 |accessdate=2008-01-25}}</ref>

Во время поездки в Лондон он встретил Роуз Лоутон Моррисон, учительницу драмы из колледжа Уэйкросс, Джорджия, которую он сопровождал в Букингемский дворец на встречу с королевой. Впоследствии они поженились и имели 11 детей.
+
-
 
+
-
==Foreign service==
+
-
Bingham served in [[Kobe]], [[Japan]], as a civilian secretary in the United States Embassy.  He worked part-time as a schoolteacher.  He traveled to [[India]] and [[Egypt]] before returning to the United States to attend [[Harvard University]].  After obtaining his law degree, he scored third in his class on the foreign service exam.
+
-
 
+
-
Bingham's first assignment in the [[United States Foreign Service]] was in [[Beijing]], [[China]].  There, he witnessed the beginnings of the communist revolution.  His travels through [[Asia]] piqued Bingham's interest in eastern religious philosophy.  He spent the rest of his life trying to reconcile eastern religious philosophies with that of the [[Christian]] traditions his family had been historically known to preach.
+
-
 
+
-
Bingham also served in [[Warsaw]], [[Poland]], sharing a [[wikt:apartment|flat]] with another diplomat, [[Charles W. Yost]], whose daughter, Felicity, became Bingham's god-daughter. In 1934, Bingham served as third secretary to the United States Embassy in [[London]]. 
+
-
 
+
-
==Vice Consul in France==
+
-
In 1939, Bingham was posted to the US Consulate in Marseille, where he, together with another vice-consul named Myles Standish, was in charge of issuing entry visas to the USA.
+
-
 
+
-
On June 10, 1940, [[Adolf Hitler]]'s forces invaded France and the French government fell.  The French signed an [[armistice]] with Germany.  In Article 19 of the document, the French agreed to "surrender on demand all Germans named by the German government in France."  Civil and military police began to round up German and Jewish refugees who were marked for death by the Nazis.  Several influential Europeans tried to lobby the American government to issue visas so that German and Jewish refugees could freely leave France to escape persecution.
+
-
 
+
-
Anxious to limit immigration to the United States and to maintain good relations with the Vichy government, the State Department actively discouraged diplomats from helping refugees.  However, Bingham cooperated with [[Varian Fry]] in issuing visas and helping refugees escape France. Varian Fry had come to Marseilles to give 200 grants to "some of the best scientists and European scholars" (1) and help them settle in the US.
+
-
 
+
-
Hiram Bingham worked with him, and instead of 200, gave about 2,000 visas, most of them to well-known personalities, speaking English, not too left-wing and not looking too Jewish, among whom [[Max Ernst]], [[André Breton]], [[Hannah Arendt]], [[Marc Chagall]], [[Lion Feuchtwanger]] and [[Nobel prize]] winner [[Otto Meyerhof]].  All the other anonymous ones, waiting night and day in front of the American consulate, were not lucky enough. Varian Fry explains in his book ''Surrender on Demand'' (1) : "we refuse to help anyone who is not recommended by a confident person."
+
-
 
+
-
He also sheltered Jews in his Marseilles home, and obtained forged identity papers to help Jews in their dangerous journeys across Europe.  He worked with the French underground to smuggle Jews out of France into Franco's Spain or across the Mediterranean and even contributed to their expenses out of his own pocket.
+
-
 
+
-
==Consequence==
+
-
In 1941, the United States government abruptly pulled Bingham from his position as Vice Consul and transferred him to [[Portugal]] and then [[Argentina]]. When he was in Argentina, he helped to track Nazi war criminals in South America. In 1945, after being passed over for promotion, he resigned from the United States Foreign Service.<ref name="Yale"/>
+
-
 
+
-
<!-- Because publicity of the American position would be embarrassing, the US did not prosecute Bingham for countering policy, in exchange for his maintaining silence. (Commented out - see talk) -->
+
-
Bingham did not speak much about his wartime activities. His own family had little knowledge of them until after Bingham's death in 1988. In 1991, Bingham's widow Rose and son Thomas found Marseille documents in the Connecticut farmhouse which they donated to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. Several years later,Bingham's youngest son found documents in a cupboard behind a chimney and family members continued to unearth documents at the farmhouse.  The materials told of Bingham's struggle to save German and Jewish refugees from death, details long hidden from the public.
+
-
 
+
-
==Honors==
+
-
After considering Bingham's deeds during the war years in Marseille for a number years, [[Yad Vashem]] issued the Bingham family a letter of appreciation on March 7, 2005. Although not a [[Righteous Among the Nations]] designation, the letter noted the "humanitarian disposition" of Bingham IV "at a time of persecution of Jews by the Vichy regime in France.... [in] contrast to certain other officials who rather acted suspiciously toward Jewish refugees wishing to enter the United States."<ref name="Courageous Dissent">{{cite web

On June 27, 2002, [[U.S. Secretary of State]] [[Colin Powell]] presented a posthumous "Constructive Dissent" award to Bingham's children at an American Foreign Service Officers Association awards ceremony in Washington, DC. Since December 1968 his son Robert Kim Bingham, Sr. had lobbied the U.S. Postal Service to issue a stamp depicting his father in recognition of his humanitarian deeds. After the proposal received wide bipartisan support in Congress, a commemorative stamp portraying Hiram Bingham IV as a "Distinguished American Diplomat" was issued on May 30, 2006.<ref>{{cite news

On October 27, 2006, the [[Anti-Defamation League]] posthumously presented Bingham its "Courage to Care" award at the ADL’s national conference in Atlanta. In November 2006, the [[Episcopal Church in the United States of America|U.S. Episcopal Church]] added Bingham to a list of "American Saints" published in the book ''A Year with American Saints'' with a summary of his life and character.

On March 28, 2011, the Simon Wiesenthal Center posthumously awarded Bingham the "Medal of Valor" in New York City with a film Tribute. The film shows the Nazis on the march in Europe and how U.S. Vice-Consul Harry Bingham rose to the dangerous occasion to save lives.

The Wall Street Journal wrote of the event: "More than 450 supporters of the Simon Wiesenthal Center gathered for the 2011 Humanitarian Award Dinner. The Medal of Valor was awarded posthumously to Sir Winston Churchill, Hiram Bingham IV, and Pope John Paul II . . . ."  Wall Street Journal, March 30, 2011.  See also Hiram Bingham IV home page at http://www.hirambinghamrescuer.com
