DESCRIPTION:Jerry Zaks shares how his parents survived multiple concentrat
 ion camps and death marches\, and how they eventually rebuilt their lives

X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>The personal story of Jerry Zaks' parents&
 rsquo\; experiences before\, during and after WWII\, and how they survived
  the Holocaust.</p>\n<p>After retiring in 2016 from a successful career in
  IT\, Jerry Zaks started a quest of researching and documenting the histor
 y of his parents&rsquo\; experiences and hardships growing up in Poland in
  the 1930&rsquo\;s.&nbsp\; Starting with a 2 hour audio interview he condu
 cted with his parents back in 1980\, Jerry has spent 6+ years researching 
 his parent's experiences to fill in the details and to tell their story.</
 p>\n<p>Jerry&rsquo\;s presentation is comprised of historical records\, ac
 tual Nazi documentation and audio clips from the 1980 interview.&nbsp\; Th
 e presentation is not a history lesson\, but instead is a deeply personal 
 story about the human experience of the Holocaust.&nbsp\; His presentation
 \, &ldquo\;Bearing Witness for my Family: Surviving the Holocaust&rdquo\;\
 , shows that survival is dependent on your own strength as well as the act
 ions of good people who were resistors to the violence and murder.&nbsp\; 
 It starts in 1937\, when his parents were 17 and 18 years old and traces t
 heir lives from before WWII\, how they survived multiple concentration cam
 ps and death marches\, and how they eventually rebuilt their lives in Amer
 ica.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><img src="https://static.libnet.info/frontend-images/e
