During World War II, teenage Lynn fled Austria to England on the Kindertransport (“Children’s Transport”). Lynn never saw her parents again.

“I became a very strong feminist. […] I always said, ‘Women’s Lib liberated me.”’

In her 1998 testimony, Holocaust survivor Lynn Orne describes becoming a feminist in the 1950s.

March is Women’s History Month in the United States.
