A Blessing, Not a Burden: The Story of Two Holocaust Survivors, Eva and Mickey Kor, told by their son Dr. Alex Kor with Graham Honaker

The Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh is pleased to welcome Dr. Alex Kor, son of Eva and Mickey Kor (z”l) and his co-author, Graham Honaker.

Eva Kor (z”l) was a Holocaust survivor who advocated for healing through forgiveness, the subject of two critically acclaimed documentaries Eva: A-7063 and Forgiving Dr. Mengele, and the founder of the CANDLES Holocaust Museum in Terre Haute, Indiana. Alex will share the story of his mother, as well as his father Mickey Kor (z”l) who was also a survivor, and the lessons we can all learn through their incredible strength, perseverance, and hope. Alex will demonstrate the interactive hologram technology utilizing his mother’s testimony. A limited number of copies of his book about his parents’ Holocaust experiences, A Blessing, Not a Burden, will be available for preorder through the registration site. Alex (and co-author Graham Honaker) will sign the books at the event.

This talk by Alex and Graham coincides with our theme for this programming year, Generations: The Memory Keepers, as we look to the next generation and descendants of Holocaust survivors, to continue to tell their family’s stories.

This event is a part of RAD Days 2024.
