Partner Event: A Daughter’s Search

A Daughter’s Search for Her Father’s Holocaust Story
A World Without Genocide webinar

This program examines a personal journey of memorialization and discovery by a daughter whose father, a professional cellist, disclosed only small details of his past during the Holocaust. She embarked on a decades-long search for his history from a slave labor camp to playing in a Jewish orchestra led by the legendary Leonard Bernstein in a displaced persons’ camp after the war.

The speakers also explore the challenges of memorialization, the nature of both genetic and psychological intergenerational trauma, and how the shadow of the Holocaust reverberates in discrimination, hate, and violence today.
