Search for Meaning with Audrey Birnbaum

from Search for Meaning with Rabbi Yoshi Hosted by Rabbi Yoshi Zweiback

Audrey Birnbaum grew up in New York in the late 1960s, the child of a Holocaust survivor. When her father, Jack, died in 2018, Audrey discovered hundreds of pages of notes he'd taken which served as a type of memoir of his experience in the Shoah. These notes, her own memories, and her research resulted in her first book: American Wolf: From Nazi Refugee to American Spy. The book was recently named a finalist for the 2023 Jewish Council National Jewish Book Award in the Holocaust Memoir category.
