Abstract
Oral history interview with Rochelle Lawrence, whose family escaped the Holocaust and immigrated to the United States in 1938.
Description
Born in Poland in 1929, Rochelle Lawrence immigrated to Palestine with her family in 1936. After two years of bombings and food shortages in Tel Aviv, Lawrence’s family moved to the United States with the support of relatives. In 1949, Lawrence married a veteran of World War II and eventually had three children. She made her home on Long Island before retiring to Georgia to be closer to her daughter. She recorded her oral history at Kennesaw State University in June 2019.
