Veritas Speaker: Mr. Donald Berkman, Holocaust Survivor

Posted February 11th, 2016

This year’s Veritas Speaker, Mr. Donald Berkman author of Two Voices:  A Mother & Son Holocaust Survivors spoke to our students and shared his experience as a holocaust survivor.  Mr. Berkman came to the United States at the age of 10.  Before the war began his family consisted of 51 people, his parents, aunts, uncles and cousins.  After the war only two had survived, Mr. Berkman and his mother.  His story is heartbreaking and important to hear.  A full video of his presentation will be available shortly.  Special thanks to Stockton University and The Sara and Sam Schoffer Holocaust Resource Center.
