Join us for an engaging talk with author Joel Poremba.

Joel Poremba tells the improbable true story his father's Holocaust survival as a nine-year-old Polish boy.

The memoir explores the story of survival, tragedy and hope against the backdrop of the resilience of a nine year old Polish Jew between 1939 and 1945. Alone and without help for most of the Holocaust, Nathan Poremba’s six-year survival required evading the Germans while maintaining an unflinching resolve to live despite the threats that enveloped his every move. His unmatched resilience is a testament to his will to live. Throughout, Nathan never acquiesced to antisemitism and he consistently resisted his tormentors .

Joel will join our community to share insights from his father's experience.
