Holocaust Survivor Lecture

Cornell College Back of Thomas Commons

Holocaust Survivor Lecture

Michael Bornstein, one of the youngest known survivors of the Auschwitz death camp, and his daughter, TV news producer and co-author Debbie Bornstein Holinstat, will speak and sign their book “Survivors Club” (books will be available for sale).

Through a series of photos, recently discovered documents, and memories shared, father and daughter relate the story of how a father’s courageous wit, a mother’s fierce love, and one perfectly timed illness saved Michael’s life during the Holocaust. Listeners will undoubtedly recognize the iconic photo of a four-year-old Bornstein at liberation, but few people knew of the miracles behind his survival until he and his daughter released their narrative non-fiction bestseller “Survivors Club” in March.
