Emil Löbl

[1] Like his older brother Leopold (1844-1907),[2] he studied law at the University of Vienna and received his Dr. jur.

In 1917 Löbl became editor-in-chief of the NWT (Neues Wiener Tagblatt), whose circulation he was able to increase substantially.

In March 1938, as Austria prepared to merge with Nazi Germany in the Anschluss, he was fired.

[3][4] Löbl was married to Gisela Gisa Basseches (June 10, 1870-1942).

She was deported to the Treblinka concentration camp and murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust.
