Holocaust Stories

I have always had a special interest in World War II and the Holocaust, and have made a point of educating myself about this significant time period. For this reason I traveled to Poland in April 2000 and visited the Nazi death camps. As a journalist, I feel a special responsibility to counter anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial by speaking to survivors and bringing their stories to light before it is too late. Here is a selection of some of the many Holocaust-themed stories and features I have written over the years.
