The Lambert family lived across the street from us in Queens, NY and my sister and I were friends with their two boys. Mrs. Lambert's husband, a doctor, saved my life when I had an appendicitis attack at age 7.
Wow that's incredible
Such a beautiful family she has god bless them all ❤
Be a decent human being and that should be your religion. Well said
I treasure my friendship with Margaret. A very special person. She would tell us stories from time to time and they will always stick with me.
She is probably the oldest survivor I've watched interviews of. such an amazing woman
Such a great Foundation, why can you not get better people to do these interviews?. I listen to all of these wonderful peoples sad stories. They deserve better!!
I completely agree. It’s shameful really. First of all there’s no uniformity to the style of interviews. Some ask a million questions and some just let the survivor speak freely. I prefer the latter. I think it would have been productive to maybe let a family member interview them and tape it or just let them speak to what they remember. The questioning is awful.
I agree. I also don't understand why this Foundation cannot find better, more compassionate interviewers. It's puzzling... there is a certain lack of humanity and detachment in these interviews
These people aren’t getting paid for doing these interviews, I’m sure. True, there are a variety of interviewer styles but from what I’ve seen, the most important factor was to focus on the interviewee’s experience, as it should be.
She is very well spoken.
Didnt ask her grandparents, relativess names and details. Lost forever.
I’ve seen Mrs. Lambert’s testimony a few times and she still awe’s me. Her’s was the very first testimony I ever watched and I am still honoured to listen to her speak. RIP Mrs. Lambert
So differenciated, so sophisticated her view and assessment of all the uncountable unique life events she had to go through. A wise and apart adorable lady. Self-reflected and totally fair in her judgment concerning all the protagonists on her life time-line. What a wonderful person.
Mrs Lambert had to be 81 when doing this interview she looks great for her age!
Aww I wish the interviewer had been better, she had such an interesting story!
thank you for posting this. it is so important for the truth to be told
Mrs Lambert. Thank you for sharing your story 🙏🤗
Thank you for giving us an insight into your life.
This was a great testimony. Margaret did not brag about her athletic prowess, she just took it as a gift. I liked that. She had the good sense to get out when she realized that no matter what she did or how well she did it, she would not be accepted by the Germans. It was heartening to know that her fellow athletes treated her just as one of them and did not care that she was Jewish.
Thank you for sharing your story I was listening with such sadness…
God bless you and all the people who died…
(RIP)
In my experience, inviting someone to your home is less common in Britain than in many other European countries. Unless Margaret was really the exception, and other people visited each other's houses, I doubt it was down to anti-semitism. People seem to socialise more at the pub.
OMG, is the interviewer in between naps?
Wow I admire this woman so much. I can not even imagine her pain... at 19 and your entire world and future dreams wiped away... Friends turning their backs not allowed to go out basically because of so much abuse.. being shunned from the world and I am only 40 mins into this story and I just had to pause and write something...,, horrible interviewer though
I love looking at the dates when it was filmed and wondering what I was doing at the time but in this one I was not even born yet my mommy was still pregnant with me I was born a month later I think it's so cool to know that
alexa adams e
interviewer sounds like robot
was the interviewer asleep?
Impressed by her message of being non judgmental and accepting of individuals who look different than you.
Amazing story....admiration
Historical figure being interviewed from the worst interviewer I've seen so far in Shoah Foundation videos. Such a shame. No details from herself, family (Names, professions etc.), her personal life and much more.
I agree- the interviewer spelled her own name yet did not spell Margaret's name. I noticed this from the very beginning.
So many awkward silences...did she not have a list of questions to ask? Terrible interviewer.
@@nicoles7872 awful interviewer, I agree
and here is her entry, Z'L'' May her memory be a blessing. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gretel_Bergmann
This was an extremely interesting woman with a life story full of let downs. Her crime…. Being Jewish. Wonderful lady. Terrible interviewer.
It was a crime to be Jewish at that time in Germany.
Not a very profetional interviwer.....but Margaret was very intresting....very sorry Margaret.
It would be wonderful if there were subtitles in German and other languages. Or a translation. My English is unfortunately too bad
She made mistakes on some important dates. But she did the best she could.
The interviewer was a cold fish.
Gosh that interviewer is just the worst, she sounds bored out of her mind
She also sounds like she is not grasping the story.
This interviewer is the pits.
I wish her family came to the US and competed against the Nazis!
Movie made about her story "berlin 36" 2009
calgary nanach I read an interview she did with a Los Angeles paper. She said that there were inconsistencies. One of them was that she fell in love with one of her teammates. She said that they did that to spice things up. Der Spiegel pointed out that the director gotten dates wrong. I think that it's better to watch documentary in addition to this interview.
She since had a 2nd film made about her life in 2017.
@@frenchartantiquesparis424 What's it called? I'm doing a school project on her and I would like to see it.
@@ElizabethCruz-lo3ni Hi, I just Googled her name...
Her english is excellent hardly even a accent
I am living in Germany and rarely I am invited to peoples house, or parties, did not chanced at All!
I'm a Long Island film maker: how can I get a hold of Mrs Lambert?
movie has already been made th-cam.com/video/q7oeRG_rhBo/w-d-xo.html
Margaret Lambert and Lata Brandisova ( of Czechoslovakia) could have been good friends.
I have greatly appreciated and enjoyed these interviews, even with such heavy conversations. However, this interviewer really bothers me. The sighs, unnecessary pauses and constant repeating. This survivor deserved better than this. Such a shame.
Bravo
Can I please ask why your interviewees do not show the tattoos on their arms?
Oh for Heaven's sake, are you not listening to this interview.
Some do, I just finished watching one
Not everyone had one and some have since faded.
The interviewer has zero skills. Damn shame.
Her town en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_Laupheim
Mrs. Lambert sound like my own daughter in personality. In England, they might have thought she was a spy.
This is kinda hiliarous that her husband was a long jumper of questionable talent.

I thought Holocaust survivors were in concentration camps,, shouldn't be Jewish survivor I'm glad she wasn't in the concentration camp she's very nice and lovely lady
Omg what?! Every Jew that was in Europe or Northern Africa during that time and lived to tell their story is a Holocaust survivor. Did you not listen to her story? She had to compete because they threatened her father and she was afraid of Nazis coming in and breaking her legs. Even I from Puerto Rico, grew up Catholic, get it. I wonder why don't you get it? Hmm
What an ignorant comment!
