Guest Speaker: Anne Millman

The Nazis invaded Poland on September 1, 1939, less than four months after Anne Millman’s parents, David and Sarna Weichman, were married in Warsaw. David, a young artist, believed they should all flee the country but his bride’s family disagreed. Anne Millman’s presentation takes us from those early moments when crucial decisions had to be made through an odyssey that eventually led to her parents’ survival and her own remarkable birth. Only many years later did Anne learn of the most basic elements of their secret journey through a harrowing period of history.
