Author, Holocaust Survivor to Speak at District 15 Schools
Marion Blumenthal Lazan, co-author of a book describing her family’s experience during the Holocaust, will share her compelling story with junior high students at two District 15 schools on January 25. Ms. Lazan will present at 8:45 a.m. at Walter R. Sundling Junior High School and at 12:19 p.m. at Winston Campus-Junior High.
Her award-winning book, Four Perfect Pebbles, is a moving first-hand account of her family’s life from the events preceding Kristallnacht to imprisonment in concentration camps and finally, liberation in April 1945. From her home in New York, Ms. Lazan has traveled across the U.S. to speak at schools, churches, synagogues and civic organizations. She has also made presentations in Germany and Israel.
Ms. Lazan’s presentation is funded by the District Fifteen Educational Foundation. Additional information is available at her Web site: www.fourperfectpebbles.com.
