For decades, Michael Bornstein saw footage of himself at 4 years old being carried out of Auschwitz. He never stepped forward to identify himself because he didn’t remember much of what happened. When a document in Israel revealed a surprising detail about his survival, he knew he had to share his story. Together with his daughter, Debbie Bornstein Holinstat, AB ’96, he shares what happened to him and his family. For more information about Bornstein and Holinstat click here.
