I was born in Karlsruhe, Germany on November 28, 1924.

When my father died in 1925, my mother started running the family photography studio. On "the night of broken glass" we were in the studio making id cards for Jews.
-
My mother and I were deported to a concentration camp on the France/ Spain border.
-
Someone told me that there was a Pastor in Le Chambon that was working to get children out of camps.
-
The workers talked to my mother, and unlike many mothers who wanted to keep their children with them, my mother sent me to Le Chambon so I could have a better life.
-
I love my new freedom, but the German roundup groups are coming this way and the Pastor sent me to a farm to stay safe at.
-
Early this year I was able to escape to Switzerland!
-
I met Max Liebmann at Gurs and got married this year.
-
I finally moved to America with my husband and my daughter. We were so glad.
-
Max and Johanna are still alive and live in New York.
