A Holocaust Love Story presented by Sheldon Bleiweiss

Sheldon Bleiweiss will talk about how his Polish Jewish parents met and fell in love during the Holocaust — the challenges they faced surviving independently in the open using false identities as non-Jews and their journey to America. He will share what it was to grow up as a child of survivors.
