I was born the youngest of ten in Otwock [Warsaw], Poland. My father was a Rabbi, a judge and a shochet. Starting at age 9, once a week, for over two years, I snuck out from the ghetto to buy potatoes, bread and salt for my family. In August 1942, my father sent me from the ghetto to the Polish side to save me. I never saw my parents again. I was liberated in January 1945 in Krakow. Seven months later, I was reunited with my sister. I speak to thousands of people hoping that they will re-tell my story of perseverance and survival. My hope is that my children and grandchildren will remember my heroic deeds during WWII.
