We were honored to have Janet Singer Applefield as our speaker this year. Her new memoir, Becoming Janet: Finding Myself in the Holocaust, is an account of her survival of the Nazi occupation as a 4-year old, separated from her parents. Over the past 40 years, she has presented her story at hundreds of venues including the Massachusetts State House, Harvard University, Westminster Synagogue in London, and countless schools through her work with Facing History and Ourselves.
