Past Events

Arthur and his daughter, Stephanie, joined 3G Michigan for open, honest, and dynamic conversation among children and grandchildren of survivors. Informed by content from Dual Identities: Living in Meier’s Shadow, the group shared examples of the enduring impact of intergenerational trauma on their families and embraced the imperative for children of survivors (like Arthur) to tell one’s own stories and not just those of one’s survivor parents. These stories are essential in the ongoing battle to combat Holocaust ignorance, revisionism and denial.

In partnership with the JCC of Greater New Haven, Jewish Federation of Greater New Haven, Jewish Historical Society of Greater New Haven, and the Yale University Fortunoff Video Archive for Holocaust Testimonies

175 guests welcomed Arthur to New Haven – his hometown and the partial setting of his memoir – to celebrate Dual Identities: Living in Meier’s Shadow! Arthur was joined by the New Haven Independent’s Paul Bass for a Q&A following his presentation.

A crowd of 75 guests joined Arthur and the Detroit Jewish News’ Mike Smith for a book club discussion and Q&A held at Schuler Books in West Bloomfield, followed by a dessert reception and book signing!

Over 400 people gathered at the Zekelman Holocaust Center to celebrate the launch of Dual Identities: Living in Meier’s Shadow! After his presentation, Arthur was joined by Fred Nahhat for a thoughtful Q&A. The presentation and discussion were filmed and later released for streaming on PBS Books’ website and YouTube channel.
