Born Jizchak Schmeidler to a young Polish Jew in Berlin in 1924, he was adopted at the age of three by a wealthy family the Kaufmanns from western Germany.
At the age of 15, with World War II imminent, he was among the last to make it onto one of the ‘Kindertransport’ trains taking German-Jewish children to England. After being interned there for two years, Kaufmann was deported to Australia. His adoptive parents were killed in Auschwitz.
Kaufmann joined the Australian army during the war, later working various jobs while trying to establish himself as a writer. His first novel, Voices in the Storm, about a resistance group in Nazi Germany, was published in 1953.
