This past week, Dr. Kevin Ostoyich gave two presentations at Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania as part of their Holocaust Remembrance Program.
On Tuesday March 25, he joined Dr. Kari-Anne Innes for a presentation entitled, “Connection Through Expression: Historical Theatre.”
On Thursday March 27, Kevin gave his second presentation called, “25 Words: The Resilience of Ernst Schwalm – A Jehovah’s Witness Who Survived Three Prisons, Seven Concentration Camps, and Three Death Marches.” The Spungen Family Foundation has numerous artifacts of Ernst Schwalm’s in our Holocaust Postal Collection, and Kevin has written a full article for the Foundation about Schwalm’s story and experience in the Holocaust.
