Janina Bauman urodziła się w Warszawie 18 sierpnia 1926 r. w rodzinie inteligenckiej, całkowicie zasymilowanej, niereligijnej. Jej ojciec Szymon Lewinson był lekarzem urologiem, tak jak wielu innych członków jej rodziny. Janina miał 13 lat, gdy we wrześniu 1939 r. wybuchła II wojna światowa. Wtedy jej ojciec został zmobilizowany do wojska jako oficer rezerwy. Razem z innymi polskimi oficerami został internowany przez armię sowiecką, przebywał w obozie w Kozielsku, a potem razem ze swoim bratem został zamordowany w Katyniu.
