Arnod Fingerhut: From a Life in Hiding to Living the American Dream

In recognition of Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, visit the Georgetown Public Library to hear Jack Fingerhut from Congregation Havurah Shalom of Sun City share the story of his father, Arnold Fingerhut.

Arnold was hidden by Catholic neighbors in their barn in Poland for four years while World War II raged across Europe. After liberation, he immigrated to Germany where he began to build a new life. But his story was  just beginning, as Arnold would soon take the first steps toward the promise of the American dream.

Attendees will see and hear clips from Arnold Fingerhut’s testimony which was recorded by Steven Spielberg’s ‘USC Shoah Foundation’ project.

This event is free and open to the public
