Peter Feigl was
attending a Quaker summer camp in France in 1942 when he learned that
his parents had been arrested. The Nazis and their French
collaborators had rounded them up with other Jews. The next day,
Peter began recording his feelings and experiences in a diary,
planning to share it with his parents when they reunited. But that
day never came.
As we mark Anne Frank's birthday, meet Peter, who as a young boy
wrote about his uncertainties and trauma during the Holocaust.
