Biography
Samuel-Cahn was born in Oslo, Norway. During the Nazi occupation of Norway, in 1942, her father, a rabbi, was warned that he would be arrested by the Germans.[2] He refused to leave in order to try to support his community.[3] In September, her father was ordered to report to the Gestapo office, where he was questioned and later sent to Auschwitz.[3] Later that year, the Nazis were going to arrest the other Jews in Oslo, however, Samuel-Cahn's family were moved by members of the underground, Ingebjørg Sletten-Fosstvedt and Sigrid Helliesen Lund, to safety and later to a refugee camp in neutral Sweden.[2] In order to cross the border, Samuel-Cahn and the rest of her family had to hide in trucks used to transport potatoes.[4] In Stockholm, Samuel-Cahn's family found out that her father had been killed in Auschwitz.[2] In 1946, Samuel-Cahn, her mother, and brothers moved to Mandatory Palestine (part of which later became Israel).[5]
Samuel-Cahn received her Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1961.[1] From 1993 to 1995, she was the president of the Israel Statistical Association.[6] In 1989, she was elected as a Fellow of the American Statistical Association.[7] She was also a fellow of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters from 1989,[8] and of the Institute of Mathematical Statistics.[9]
In 2004, Samuel-Cahn won the Israel Prize for her work in statistics.[10] In 2012, she spoke at a memorial ceremony in the Martyrs' Forest in Jerusalem Hills, commemorating Norwegian Jews murdered in the Holocaust and remembering those who helped hide and protect Jews in Norway.[11]
She died in November 2015.[12]
