Eyewitness to History: Holocaust Survivor Rose-Helene Spreiregen

The Eyewitness to History video library was created to enable audiences everywhere to hear firsthand testimony from Holocaust survivors. This video was created from a live digital program, First Person: Conversations with Holocaust Survivors, recorded on July 20, 2022. It features Rose-Helene Spreiregen, who was born in 1931 in Paris, France, where she experienced steadily increasing persecution of Jews during the Nazi occupation beginning in 1940. She and her grandmother escaped the city and survived the Holocaust and World War II hiding in a small town in southern France, where they had to forage food from the forest.
