Inge Auerbacher: Memories of a Child Survivor of the Holocaust, Brandeis 1/28 at 5

[Tatjana Meschede]

Dear members and friends of our former Newton German-Jewish Dialog group,

I like to share the invite for this Brandeis event with you:

Join us to hear the moving and important testimony of Holocaust survivor Inge Auerbacher at Brandeis University. Inge was born in Germany and spent three years between 7-10 years of age in the Terezin (Theresienstadt) concentration camp in Czechoslovakia, where out of 15,000 children, about 1 percent survived. She remembers when the now famous children’s opera Brundibar was first written and performed while she was in Terezin. She tells her life story in multiple books, including "Child of the Holocaust," "Beyond the Yellow Star To America," and "Running Against the Wind." 

This event will take place Tuesday, January 28, 5-7 pm at the Shapiro Campus Center Theater at Brandeis University. You must RSVP to attend this free and open to the public event. Please bring ID to check in. A book signing will follow the event.

Please RSVP here
