Living With the Past D. Krauthoefer Al honestly and poignantly relates the story of his early childhood, the loss of normal adolescence because of the Holocaust and his lifelong journey to overcome the past.

A Remarkable Message Of Hope and Faith Over Fear and Love Over Hate Justen Charters I was at Alter Wiener's home last Friday. I saw him speak when I was thirteen, nearly fourteen years ago.

About the AuthorI had lived in Forest Hills, New York for 40 years and I had never been asked to share my life story, with students or adults. I met a Holocaust survivor who urged me to join the Oregon Holocaust Resource Center (OHRC). Most of my listeners have been quite respectful, sympathetic, as reflected in their faces, sometimes with outrage and often with tears. I am crying in silence, I am still in pain, I am draped in sadness.

Its message illustrates what prejudice may lead to and how tolerance is imperative. Alter Wiener's father was brutally murdered on September 11, 1939 by the German invaders of Poland. Alter Wiener is one of the very few Holocaust survivors still living in Portland, Oregon. He moved to Oregon in 2000 and since then he has shared his life story with over 700 audiences (as of June, 2011) in universities, colleges, middle and high schools, Churches, Synagogues, prisons, clubs, etc. This book is not just Wiener's life story but it reveals many responses to his story. Hopefully, it will enable many readers to truly understand such levels of horror and a chance to empathize with the unique plight of the Holocaust victims. Wiener's autobiography is a testimony to an unfolding tragedy taking place in WWII. Feel free to visit my website alterwiener for more information including links..

At the age of 15 he was deported to Blechhammer, a Forced Labor Camp for Jews, in Germany
