dc.descriptionBorn in Queens, New York, in 1996, Emily Yehezkel grew up on Long Island, the youngest grandchild of Martin Brown, a Holocaust survivor. Born in Czechoslovakia in 1928 Martin died when Emily was five years old. She did not learn her grandfather's full story until she was a young adult. Through archival research and connections with family members in the Czech Republic, she learned about his imprisonment in the Mukacs ghetto in Hungary and subsequent deportation to Auschwitz. She also learned of his survival of death marches to Buchenwald and Dachau. After liberation, Martin found his way to a DP camp in Germany and immigrated to the United States in 1947. As a third generation Holocaust survivor, Emily has committed herself to sharing her grandfather's story with the world.
