Presenter - Dr. Tammy Bottner
Dr. Tammy Bottner is the child and grandchild of Holocaust survivors. In her book she recounts the moving story of her own family’s travails in war-torn Europe. In her memoir Dr. Bottner not only delves into stories of hardship and resilience in the face of tragedy, but also explores how these tragedies affect later generations. Immediately after a bagel breakfast at 9:30 a.m. Dr Bottner will present her story followed by discussion and a book signing.
Words of welcome by H. E. Johan Verkamen, Ambassador of Belgium to Canada.
