Life in a DP Camp - Italian Style presented by Peter Tannenbaum.

 

"I was born in 1946 in DP 17, an UNRRA displaced persons camp located in Grugliasco, a small town near Turin, Italy. Between 1946 and 1949 approximately 220 Jewish children were born in DP 17. Seventy years later about a dozen of us "Grugliasco kids" held a reunion on the grounds of the old DP camp. In my talk I will briefly share what life in an Italian DP camp was like and how that remarkable reunion came to be."
