13-year-old Ellen Brandt lived a joyful life in Berlin, Germany until the Nuremberg Race Laws were imposed in 1935. These laws imposed prohibitory restrictions on the rights and freedoms of Jewish Germans, and declared that Jews were no longer full German citizens. The laws also banned marriages between Jewish and non-Jewish Germans.

Ellen Brandt was born in Mannheim, Germany in 1922. She survived the Holocaust by fleeing Nazi-controlled territory. Ellen was interviewed by USC Shoah Foundation in Los Angeles, USA in 1996.

May is Jewish-American Heritage Month.
