SUMMARY:Łódź to Pittsburgh: A Holocaust Survival Story
DESCRIPTION:Lee Goldman Kikel\, daughter of Holocaust survivor Melvin Goldman\, will be sharing her father’s story of survival and resilience. \n\n\n\n\nIn middle age\, Melvin Goldman recorded a series of cassette tapes telling his life story\, leaving them to be found decades later after his passing. His daughter\, Lee Goldman Kikel\, discovered the recordings—a priceless family heirloom conveying memory and the history of a Polish Jewish family which became the basis of a 2019 Holocaust memoir. Lee’s presentation focuses on her father’s recounting: his pre-war childhood\, ability to survive the Łódź ghetto\, Auschwitz and other concentration camps\, and a miraculous recovery while knowing most of his family perished. Lee tells how hope\, tenacity\, and perseverance amid major losses guided her father to become a United States citizen and start a new life in Pittsburgh. \n\nRegister here. \n\nThis is the second of a three-program series highlighting stories of Jewish people in Butler \nCounty and Western Pennsylvania.Presenter: Lee Goldman Kikel
