My Dad’s Story: Remembering the Holocaust, with Sue Tresatti and Richard Murphy
June 9 @ 7:00 pm – 9:30 pm
More than 1.6 million people were imprisoned in Nazi concentration camps between 1933 and 1945. One of them was Norman Roth.
Tonight, join Norman’s daughter Sue Tresatti for the heartrending story of her father’s imprisonment in the Auschwitz and Buchenwald concentration camps as a teenage boy. Upon arrival at Auschwitz, Norman’s life was spared for labor but his mother, younger sister, and younger brother were murdered in the gas chambers. Hear about how Norman survived years of horror and escaped to the West from behind the Iron Curtain, eventually settling in Pittsburgh.
Military researcher and WWII historian Richard Murphy provides historical context. An audience Q&A will follow the presentation.
