Parents cheated death in the Warsaw Ghetto, concentration camps, and POW camps

They resisted the Nazis in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising

Paul Goldstein has made it his mission to speak about his parents’ experiences in Nazi-occupied Poland—how his mother escaped from the Warsaw Ghetto, how his parents’ cheated death in concentration camps, and how a miraculous discovery led him to learn of his father’s role in a historic revolt at the Treblinka extermination camp.

With the aid of family and archival photographs and his parents’ written and video testimonies, he explains what can happen when hatred and antisemitism go unchecked and how his parents’ lessons of life, death, and survival impacted his own attitudes and behaviors.

After a successful career in marketing and advertising, Professor Goldstein taught at West Conn University and the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. In addition to his current role as a Holocaust speaker and educator, he serves on the Holocaust Commemoration Committee of Fairfield, CT and speakers bureau for the Holocaust Learning Experience in Palm Beach County; Voices of Hope, and the Jewish Federation of Fairfield County. A native New Yorker, he now resides between Connecticut and Florida with his wife Sharon.

Paul is a member of GenerationsForward, a group of second and third generation individuals sponsored by the Holocaust and Human Rights Education Center of White Plains, New York. He was the keynote speaker at the University of New Haven’s Holocaust Remembrance Day and Morse Life’s Kristallnacht Remembrance Day in 2024. Since 2016 he has presented to over 15,000 students, teachers, administrators, and adult audiences in CT, NY, NJ, and FL as a personal tribute to those who survived and those who died during those years of unparalleled depravity and hatred.
