During this program, you will learn about Holocaust survivor Solange Lebovitz’s experiences as a Jewish child and teen living in occupied France, hiding from the Nazis and their collaborators. While she was living in hiding, her other family members were in concentration camps and her brothers were members of the French Resistance.
Solange was born in 1930 in Paris, France. She survived by hiding in Normandy with help from a selfless, brave Catholic couple. In 1952, she married a fellow Holocaust survivor, and they then settled in Pittsburgh. Solange has two children, five grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren. Solange is also an accomplished poet and writer, and some of her poetry will be read at this event. Participants will also have the opportunity to ask their own questions during the program.
