04/15/2021 HHREC Memory Keepers GenerationsForward Speaker-Kathy Zaltas

Please join the Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center Memory Keepers GenerationsForward Speaker-Kathy Grosz-Zaltas on April 15 at 7 p.m. in the safety and comfort of your own home.

Kathy is the daughter of Holocaust survivors. She tells their story to honor their lives and to have their story serve as a purposeful tool to combat bullying, injustice, antisemitism, and bigotry in our world today.

Her parents grew up in different parts of Czechoslovakia in well-to-do families until the Nazis took control of their lives, destroying their families forever. Despite their hardships and losses through concentration camps, forced labor, and death marches, survival was their personal miracle.

Kathy speaks of their lives after the war, along with their growing family in America. She discussed what it is like to be the Second Generation.
Kathy was a foreign language teacher for 17 years in Westchester County. Currently, she and her family owns the Zaltas Gallery of Fine Jewelry in Mamaroneck.
