Description
Hidden Child of the Holocaust: An historic evening of inspiration with Janet Applefield
Born Gustawa Singer in 1935 in Nowy Targ, Poland, Janet and her family enjoyed a comfortable and stable life until the Nazi invasion of 1939.
A clinical social worker, Janet will recount how at just seven years old, she witnessed her mother being transported to the death camp at Belzec, and her father being assigned to forced labor. Janet witnessed unimaginable danger and the love, courage, and dedication of a few extraordinarily righteous citizens who saved her life. Janet documented her story in her forthcoming memoir, Becoming Janet: Finding Myself in the Holocaust.
