Presenter Gene Fiesta
What was daily life like for Anne Frank in the secret annex where she and her family isolated themselves to avoid deportation to a work camp? Learn the Frank’s daily struggles from Gene Festa, a local Holocaust scholar. This program is part of Holocaust Learn and Remember, presented by the San Antonio Public Library and Holocaust Memorial Museum of San Antonio. Holocaust Learn and Remember is a month-long series hosted annually in the month of January. This year’s theme, Isolation, and Discrimination in the Holocaust, will focus on the experiences of those that were forced to face isolation in order to avoid the actions of Hitler and the Nazi Party.
