    Have long been a reader of Shoah survivors. I found Heather on line because Andrea Cote mentioned your name to me so I looked it up and there I found you.

    Thanks for getting in touch, Gisela – Heather does incredibly important work. Her new book will tell the story of the first 999 Jewish girls and women transported to Auschwitz.
