Hear and Meet a Holocaust Survivor

WITNESS TO TRUTH - A Tribute To Our Holocaust Survivors

Pulitzer Prize–winning photojournalist Marissa Roth has photographed over 100 Holocaust survivors, whose black-and-white portraits hang in a place of prominence on the spiraling ramp that connects and fills the core of the Museum. Started in 2005, Witness to Truth was a commissioned project to capture the community of survivors who have volunteered and shared their own testimonies of survival at the Museum of Tolerance. View the portraits at the top of this page.
