Kleinberg will share the story of his experience during World War II. Kleinberg was born in Poland but fled with his family when the Nazis invaded in 1939. The unique yet harrowing journey took them through Russia and Siberia and eventually to Uzbekistan.
Kleinberg describes the sacrifices his mother made to protect him and demonstrates how their endurance enabled them to survive terrible indignities and horrors of war.
Join us for this amazing opportunity to experience a piece of history as Kleinberg describes his story of triumph out of tragedy.
Kleinberg is dedicated to carrying on the memory of the Holocaust. He is the author of “Bread or Death: Memories of my Childhood during and after the Holocaust” and is chairman and CEO of Senior Market Sales, Inc., an Omaha-based insurance marketing company.
