Author Talk: Caroline Stoessinger, A Century of Wisdom: Lessons from the Life of Alice Herz-Sommer, The World’s Oldest Living Holocaust Survivor

This Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) program is free and open to the community. 

Following the book talk, Caroline Stoessinger will also speak at the MJCCA’s beginning at 4:00pm.

From the MJCCA about Alice Herz-Sommer and A Century of Wisdom:

"At 108 years old, pianist Alice Herz-Sommer is an eyewitness to the entire last century and the first decade of this one. A Century of Wisdom is the remarkable and inspiring story of one woman’s lifelong determination—in the face of some of the worst evils known to man—to find goodness in life. It is a testament to the bonds of friendship, the power of music, and the importance of leading a life of material simplicity, intellectual curiosity, and never-ending optimism."
