Holocaust Survivor Edith Shapiro | Recalling Life Before WWII | USC Shoah Foundation

Edith (Tennenbaum) Shapiro was born in 1936 in Zloczow, Poland.

Edith was 6 years old when the Nazis invaded her town in southeastern Poland in 1941. She and her sister, Selma Tennenbaum Rossen, survived the Holocaust by hiding in attics, cellars, and bunkers.

In this clip, Edith recalls what family life was like before World War II.
