USC Shoah Foundation mourns the death of Georg Citrom, Holocaust survivor and longtime friend of the Institute.
Citrom was born in Oradea, Romania, in 1931. His father was a teacher in the local Jewish school and he had one older sister, Suzy. His family practiced modern Orthodox Judaism and he loved visiting his grandparents at their house in the countryside.
Visitors to the Museum of Jewish Heritage – A Living Memorial to the Holocaust in New York City can now interact with the testimonies of Holocaust survivors Pinchas Gutter and Eva Schloss through USC Shoah Foundation’s New Dimensions in Testimony (NDT) pilot installation. It will be at the museum now through December 22, 2017.
Each week, we will profile a scholar who will present his or her research at the Center for Advanced Genocide Research's upcoming conference Digital Approaches to Genocide Studies, Oct. 23-24, 2017.
