Interview Summary
Videotape testimony of Norbert L., who was born in Danzig, Germany in 1922. He recalls his parents' orthodoxy; the rich Jewish life in Danzig; anti-Jewish restrictions following the ascent of the Nazis to power; expulsion from school; attending an ORT school in Berlin; hiding during Kristallnacht; returning to Danzig; fleeing with his family to Belgium and London in 1939; emigrating to the United States; being drafted into the army in 1943; participating in the liberation of Paris; and his postwar life. Mr. L. notes many family members perished in the Holocaust; visiting Danzig with his wife; and difficulties sharing his experiences with his children.
