Interview Summary
Videotape testimony of Ursula K. who was born in Bremen, Germany in 1927. She recalls her family's move to Budapest shortly after her birth; happy times as part of the German community; a decline in her family's economic circumstances leading to their return to Germany in 1933; Jewish holiday observances; antisemitism in school; her mother's wish to emigrate and her father's refusal; and her sister's emigration to the United States in September 1938. Mrs. K. recounts their arrest on Kristallnacht; release with the other women and children; her father's detainment (she never saw him again); Nazi destruction of Jewish property; expulsion from school; futile attempts to secure her father's release; leaving from Hamburg with her brother on a children's transport to England; separation from her brother; difficulties living with families in Hull; moving to a girls' hostel where she was happier; leaving school at fourteen; secretarial training; working in Harrogate and London; and joining her sister in the United States in 1946. She discusses her sense of isolation in England and how she has come to terms with her losses.
