Onstage at the Reagan Library with Holocaust Survivor Tova Friedman

As part of the programming for our Auschwitz: Not Long Ago. Not Far Away. exhibition, please join us for a special in-person event as we share a collection of heirloom recipes and stories from Auschwitz- Birkenau survivors. We will be joined at this event by Tova Friedman, a survivor and cookbook contributor, as well as the executive director of the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial Foundation, Dr. Maria Zalewska, the author of the cookbook.
Honey Cake & Latkes is more than a cookbook; this collection of heirloom recipes conveys Auschwitz-Birkenau survivors’ stories through the mnemonic lens of cooking and food. Collected and edited during the pandemic, this book has over 110 recipes accompanied by survivors’ pre-war recollections and post-liberation memories. All proceeds from the sale of this book go to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial Foundation. The Daughter of Auschwitz is a powerful memoir by one of the youngest survivors of Auschwitz, Tova Friedman, following her childhood growing up during the Holocaust and surviving a string of near-death experiences in a Jewish ghetto, a Nazi labor camp, and Auschwitz. During six months of incarceration in Birkenau, Tova witnessed atrocities that she could never forget, and experienced numerous escapes from death. She is one of a handful of Jews to have entered a gas chamber and lived to tell the tale.

First, thanks Aron for being wise for your age and all you’ve done to help your Grandma be heard!
Maria is delightful. Now I need to buy the “Cookbook of Love” too. “Food is the fabric of your memories!”
Tova, you are brave, beautiful, and bold. Thank you for sharing your life with the world.
I’m happy to celebrate it he beginning of Passover along with you tomorrow with a Seder.
My adopted Aunt from NY was Jewish and she was the world to me and my family.
Growing up in Bloomfield, CT a little Christian girl with 2 Jewish best friends who taught me everything about their culture.

Aron, u are a smart young man teaching your grandmother about Tik Tok and getting her to teaching people about her life and the past. If people don't learn from history, you are deem to repeat it. She gave me the answer I always wondered if any children made it through the Holocaust because I always thought they killed the children when they got off the trains. I'm glad I was wrong about that.
