LIBS Marks Holocaust Memorial Day 2022
On the 25th January, Lincoln International Business Staff were delighted to be joined by Dr Agnes Grunwald-Spier MBE for their weekly College staff meeting in order to mark Holocaust Memorial Day.
Over 80 staff joined the virtual meeting to listen to Agnes, who was born in Budapest in July 1944 and sent to the Budapest Ghetto with her mother in November 1944, being liberated in January 1945. This makes her one of the youngest Holocaust survivors. She came to studying the Holocaust late in life when she did an MA in Holocaust Studies at Sheffield University 1996-98. This has led to three published books as well as lectures both in the UK and abroad. She has been honoured with an MBE and two Honorary Doctorates for her work.
