Marion Blumenthal Lazan and her family survived six-and-a-half years in Holocaust prisons, including Westerbork in Holland and the notorious Bergen-Belsen in the heart of Nazi Germany—the concentration camp in which Anne Frank was imprisoned until her death.

In addition to her memoir, co-authored with children’s book author Lila Perl, Lazan has toured widely for a quarter-century discussing her Holocaust experiences.
