Renee Herskowitz was born in Vienna, Austria in 1931. When Renee was 7 years old, Jews in Austria were banned from public spaces and subjected to violent attacks by non-Jewish civilians. Through an uncle living in British Mandate Palestine, Renee and her family were able to flee Austria and survive the war.

In this moving clip from her USC Shoah Foundation testimony, Renee recalls listening to the radio, and hearing the hopeful voices of Jewish resistance fighters in Warsaw – which she’d never hear again.
