Mazel Tov!

Four Dayton-area Holocaust survivors — Felix Garfunkel, Larry Katz, Ira Segalewitz, and Yakov Shayevich — are included in the Cincinnati photography exhibit, Holding Hope: Stories of Survival During the Holocaust, on display through June 7 at Union Terminal, under the auspices of the Wolf Holocaust & Humanity Center. Survivors’ stories are on display along with their portraits, taken by Cincinnati-based photojournalist Madeleine Hordinski, a regular contributor to The New York Times and The Washington Post. The Holocaust & Humanity Center has also published a book of the exhibit, which is available for purchase.
