LUNCH & LEARN – Greece and the Holocaust

The Holocaust in Greece decimated one of the oldest Jewish communities in the world. Ninety percent of Greek Jews were murdered by the Nazis. As an art correspondent for Life magazine, Bernard Perlin captured on canvas the atrocities he witnessed.

A Greek Jew born in Athens in 1930, Edgar Inselberg, was among the few that survived. The life of his daughter, Milwaukee Jewish community member, Louise Jesse, was shaped by this daunting, lesser known narrative. In a presentation contextualized by scholar Amy Shapiro, Louise will share her father’s harrowing and inspiring story.
