the Rev yesterday - "...from the producer of 'Schnidler's List'..."

Spielberg had 2 other producers. Gerald R Molen and Branko Lustig. I'm going with Molen - who is an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

"...In 2012 Molen was prohibited from speaking to high school students in Montana by the principal who described him as a "right wing conservative." The cancellation of his presentation resulted in widespread criticism of the principal. The school district superintendent regretted the principal's decision saying, "...that’s not how we treat people.""...

Lustig - During World War II, as a child he was imprisoned for two years in Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen. Most members of his family perished in the death camps throughout Europe, including his grandmother who was killed in the gas chamber, while his father was killed in Čakovec by Hungarians on March 15, 1945. Lustig mother survived the Holocaust and was reunited with him after the war.
