Los Angeles is one of the great Jewish cities of the world
and home to hundreds of Holocaust survivors with personal narratives full of life.
It is important to hear their stories and their voices, now more than ever, when we need
to be reminded of our commonalities and mutual hope for our community, city, and world.
Surviving the Holocaust: Stories of Life is a series of audio conversations with
Holocaust survivors — oral histories that explore life during and after the Holocaust.
These conversations are part of an ongoing project by KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles
and Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust in Pan Pacific Park.
Excerpts air weekly on KPFK, and can also be found at lamoth.org.
Survivors have so much to say.
We are lucky that their voices are so strong, and their memories so clear.
