These passports ultimately saved thousands of Jews from the horrors of the Holocaust\, including Heidi Fishman’s grandfather. \nThis is an online\, Zoom lecture. \nFree for members. $7.00 for non-members. \nGet tickets here \nAbout the Speakers:\nHeidi Fishman (left) and Alexandra MacMurdo Reiter (right) pose for a photo following a joint presentation. \nAlexandra Reiter\, MA\, EMBA\n Alexandra Reiter is an Assistant Professor of Communication with 13 years of experience teaching Communication courses at Georgia Highlands College.  Alex received her Bachelor of Science in Communication from Florida State University\, and her Masters in Organizational Communication and Executive MBA from Suffolk University in Boston\, Massachusetts. \nAlex teaches courses including Human Communication\, Intercultural Communication and Public Speaking.  Alex’s mission is to help people become more confident communicators and presenters.  Her areas of expertise and focus include speech delivery and presentation\, audience analysis and nonverbal communication. \nIn June 2019\, Alex accepted the Virtus Et Fraternitas medal presented to her by Polish President Andrzej Duda.  Only 14 medals of this type have been given in Polish history.  This medal was given posthumously for her grandfather’s bravery in saving Jews in occupied German territory during World War II through the creation of fake foreign passports which saved thousands of lives. \nAlex lives in Dallas\, GA with her husband Brady and their 4 daughters\, 2 cats and 1 dog.  In her free time\, she enjoys yoga\, boating\, watching Florida State football and Atlanta United soccer and spending time with her family. \nHeidi Fishman\, MA\, EdD\, Author\nHeidi Fishman is an author and psychologist. She has an M.A. and an Ed.D. in Counseling Psychology and worked at Dartmouth College and in private practice for 20 years focusing on helping people overcome trauma and eating disorders. \nWhile Heidi always knew her mother and grandparents were Holocaust survivors\, she didn’t start researching their story until she retired. Five years of investigation led to Tutti’s Promise (2017\, MB Publishing\, Bethesda) which\, while fictionalized for the purpose of allowing conversations among characters\, follows the Lichtensterns’ true story from May 10\, 1940\, in Amsterdam through two Nazi camps\, liberation\, and resettlement; the book contains a significant number of original documents. \nFishman won the Joseph Zola Memorial Holocaust Educator Award from the Maurice Greenberg Center for Judaic Studies at the University of Hartford.

She has made multiple visits to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington\, DC to sign copies of Tutti’s Promise. Pre-Covid\, she travelled throughout the US. In this time of Covid\, she presents remotely. Heidi is also on the board of the Vermont Holocaust Memorial and is Vice-Chair of the International Committee of the Ładoś Group. \nShe lives in Vermont with her husband and an aging border terrier.

SUMMARY:Lecture - Losing History
DESCRIPTION:It is easy to lose history without a conscious decision to preserve it.  Join us on February 27 at 7 p.m. at the Bartow History Museum as author Merrill Davies pursues this subject.  She will share with both children and adults the importance of asking questions of senior family members.  In addition\, she will explore why somethings are never recorded.  Davies will leave us with a few suggestions on how to preserve history moving forward. \n Merrill Davies is a retired high school English teacher with an interest in history.  After 31 years of teaching\, Davies has published four novels and one book of devotional poetry. As part of Thursday night’s program\, she will talk about\, Becoming Jestina\, a historical fiction about a Rosie the Riveter from WWII.  In this book\, Merrill captured the life experiences of Jane Tucker who worked as a rod welder on Liberty Ships at the Southeastern Shipyards in Savannah from 1943-1945.  In addition to hearing from Davies you will also have the opportunity to meet Tucker herself.  Join us for this informative evening.  Through this event\, we hope to encourage you as well as your children to consider how you might help preserve your own family history. \nIn addition to writing\, Davies enjoys spending time with family and friends and is active in Rome Toastmasters\, Rome Area Writers\, and First Baptist Church. She is currently working on her fifth novel as well as writing poetry. She was voted Rome News Tribune’s best local writer for 2019. \nThe lecture is free for members and included in the price of admission to the museum for non-members. \n
