To tell my mother’s family’s story of survival, I went on a worldwide journey of five years to conduct extensive research in the archives and museums of Europe, America, and Israel. The links to these archives are provided below.
I also interviewed historians, archivists, survivors, rescuers, and families of victims and rescuers, and retraced the steps of my mother’s family through Amsterdam, Westerbork, and Terezín.
