To mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day, National Arts Club member Elizabeth Bellak and her daughter, Alexandra, will talk about the journal written by Alexandra’s sister, Renia Spiegel. Renia was a Jewish teenager in southeastern Poland when she began writing her diary. By the time she was executed by Nazi soldiers, she had chronicled life under a totalitarian regime.

Her journal, hidden in a safe deposit box in New York City for decades, is a valuable historical document and a poignant coming-of-age story, akin to Anne Frank’s diary.

Shul member Francis Dubois will interview Elizabeth and Alexandra on Wednesday, Jan. 27, at 3 p.m. To register, free of charge, visit nationalartsclub.org and click on the event.
