Moderated by Broadcast Journalist Caryn Lieberman, Historian Robin Judd, granddaughter of a Holocaust survivor who married an American soldier after liberation, introduces us to the Jewish women who lived through genocide and went on to wed American, Canadian, and British military personnel after the war. 

 

Join us to explore the poignant and often overlooked experiences of Jewish women who married servicemen and relocated to North America after surviving the Holocaust. Discover how these unions helped reshape postwar life, offering a fresh start amid loss and grief.
