Alice-Herz-Sommer!

I wish I had a picture to insert here of Alice-Herz-Sommer, but here is a link  to a  photo on Amazon.  She was a concert pianist who was a Holocaust Survivor.  She lived to be 110 years old!  You can buy her books yet and see interviews of her speaking and playing her piano on you tube.  Netflix has a wonderful documentary of her called 'The Lady in Number 6'.   Trust me,  you'll love it.  She was  inspirational,  a wonderful lady!  And,  she had a Facebook page which is still up.  Many pictures & so on.  I sure have loved seeing the Netflix documentary about her.  I will never forget it.

I was able to get 3 free samples of her books from my itunes store.   I'll enjoy reading them and then get the option to purchase the entire book.   I like free samples,  they are a nice little gift and they pay off for the Apple itunes store.  I purchased two books just Saturday evening.  (with pleasure)  =).  I hope you have time to enjoy getting to see the joy of Alice-Herz-Sommer...I just checked and if you go to you tube and type in Alice Herz Sommer the Lady in Number 6 ...the documentary I saw on Netflix is all there....love it.  I will watch it again myself!  This shows what a blessing we can be to others.  We never know the impact our lives will have ...no matter what.

Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.  Psalms 55:22

I'll check on that, too. I know I would enjoy it and like the books. Maybe my library has them. Enjoy your day my friend! Hugs!

I have to check her out. I am not familiar with her, and I am so glad you shared her with us. I recently read The Hiding Place again. I didn't know if you noticed it on my sidebar. I got a little "behind" with you somehow. Sorry!
