(born May 22, 1936 in Halbstadt in Ukraine) is a Ukrainian-born American author, child psychologist, activist, former social worker, and Holocaust denier. She has written several novels loosely based upon her own experiences from growing up in a Mennonite community in Ukraine and as a refugee child during World War II. Most of her family was exterminated by the Soviets. Fleeing the Red Army, she ended up in Germany with her mother in 1945. After several years as a refugee, they emigrated to an isolated Mennonite community in the rain forests of Paraguay in 1948, with the help of Dutch and American Mennonites. She moved to Canada in 1960 and to the United States in 1967. Her 1984 book The Furies and the Flame is her autobiography as an immigrant and deals with her struggle to raise her handicapped child. In her third book, Demon Doctor, Rimland tells of her quest to find Josef Mengele in the 1980s with the help of Simon Wiesenthal."
