About
Sharon tells the story of her father, Nathan Elbaum, a Holocaust survivor and a hidden child of the Holocaust. Her second book, "Tear Stained Pages" recounts his harrowing tale of survival, evading the Nazis with his family in occupied Poland. Although the book chronicles his horrifying experiences it also expresses the intergenerational transmission of love and gratitude. Sharon’s father survived to live an extraordinary life.
For over three decades, Holocaust Survivors have volunteered their time at the Museum of Tolerance to speak about their experiences during World War II. Over 50,000 visitors per year meet and hear a Holocaust survivor or 2nd generation speaker. These speakers are ambassadors of memory, hope, and tolerance.
The Museum of Tolerance is proud to present live testimonies each week. Hear from Witness to Truth speakers as they share personal accounts—either their own or their parent’s experiences during the Holocaust.
Included with admission. Each session includes a Q&A.
