Holocaust survivor speaks Wednesday at Northwood University


Holocaust survivor Erna Gorman will share her experiences at 7 p.m. Wednesday, April 25, in the Carl A. Gerstacker Academic Center at Northwood University, 4000 Whiting. Gorman was born in Metz, France, in 1935. In 1939, her family traveled to Poland to attend a family function when World War II began. Detained by Nazis, the family fled to the Ukraine, where they lived in hiding or many years before emigrating to the United States. Gorman is the author of the book "While Other Children Played." She will share her experiences in hiding and the importance of accepting people for who they are.
