Risa Schwartz Whiting, born Fanny Englander (November 25, 1939 – June 20, 2017) was an actress active in the United States, most commonly known for her role in The Tenth Man (Chayefsky play) as Evelyn Foreman.
Her adoptive father was Maurice Schwartz, founder of the Yiddish Art Theatre and its associated school in New York City.
Shortly thereafter, Whiting was rescued and transferred from the Meisjeshuis orphanage to the Sint-Erasmus hospital in Borgerhout (Antwerp), where she went into hiding with several other Jewish children.
After another rescue, she was brought to the non-Jewish Vander Voordt family, where she survived the remainder of the war.
Maurice Schwartz was a stage and film actor active in the United States, who founded the Yiddish Art Theatre and its associated school in 1918 in New York City, and was its theatrical producer and director.
