Child of two Polish Holocaust Survivors

Debra Lewis

Debra Nancy Lewis is the child of two Polish Holocaust survivors. Her mother, Rose, was born in Lodz and survived the Lodz Ghetto, Birkenau, Oederon (Flossenburg) and Terezin before emigrating to London in 1945 with a group of 732 orphans known as "The Boys." Debra's father, Benjamin, was born in Opatow and was a prisoner at a subcamp of Buchenwald known as Skarjisko Kamienna where he was able to survive thanks to his skills as a tailor.


Debra is a member of GenerationsForward, a group of second and third generation individuals sponsored by the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center of White Plains, New York.
