Hear a Holocaust Survivor

"WITNESS TO TRUTH" - A Tribute To Our Holocaust Survivors

For over three decades, Holocaust survivors have volunteered their time at the Simon Wiesenthal Center and the Museum of Tolerance to speak about their painful experiences during World War II. These survivors have been the most effective ambassadors of memory, hope and tolerance for our Museum and their dedication and courage serve as a testament to the vibrancy and tenacity of Jewish life.

In honor of these Holocaust survivor volunteers, the MOT commissioned Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer Marissa Roth to photograph each of these extraordinary people for our permanent exhibit “Witness to Truth.” View this exhibition on the Second Floor of the MOT.
