Alyse Jones — Searcher — Holocaust Love Stories

Vladek’s love for Anja inspired me to look for other Holocaust love stories.

I found this video telling Masha and Avraham Greenbaum’s story. Their story is different from Vladek’s and Anja’s because it begins at the end of the war when Masha was technically a refugee at Bergen-Belsen rather than a prisoner. The video is interesting because Masha briefly talks about the horrors she encountered in the concentration camp, including lice spreading typhus.

The source seems to be reliable because it is linked with ABC news, but that can sometimes mean little. For example, a famous Holocaust love story about Herman and Roma Rosenblat has proved false, yet it has been featured as true on CBS news http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULcvUxd_Ngo&NR=1, has been made into a children’s book, and is currently being made into a movie http://news.usti.net/home/news/cn/?/news.jews/2/wed/bb/Ayb124897688.Rsad_INV.html.
