Inge Auerbacher is a notable Holocaust survivor whose story has been featured in several podcasts and interviews. Born in 1934 in Kippenheim, Germany, Inge was only a young child when the horrors of the Holocaust unfolded. Her story is particularly powerful because it shows the experience of the Holocaust through the eyes of a child. In 1942, at the age of 7, Inge and her family were deported to the **Terezin concentration camp** (Theresienstadt) in Czechoslovakia. Terezin was presented by the Nazis as a "model" ghetto, meant to deceive the international community about the true conditions of concentration camps, but in reality, it was a place of starvation, disease, and death. Over 33,000 people died there, and tens of thousands were transported to death camps like Auschwitz. Inge and her parents were fortunate to survive their three years in Terezin, despite the horrific conditions. Inge was one of the few children who made it through. Out of the approximately 15,000 children imprisoned in Terezin, only about 100 survived. After the war, Inge immigrated to the United States with her parents. Despite the trauma of her childhood, she pursued a career in chemistry and became an author and public speaker, sharing her story to educate others about the Holocaust. She has written books, including her memoir **"I Am a Star: Child of the Holocaust,"** which recounts her experience as one of the few surviving children from Terezin. In podcasts, Inge often reflects on her memories of Terezin, the importance of resilience, and the duty to remember the past so that history does not repeat itself. Her voice serves as a living testament to the strength of the human spirit in the face of overwhelming adversity. You may find episodes with Inge Auerbacher on various Holocaust remembrance podcasts, where she recounts her experiences and her message of peace and hope.
