The Lost and the Living: One Family’s Journeys from the Old World to the New, and Back Again
 Los Angeles native Lisa Lainer-Fagan presents her extraordinary research and the family trip to Lithuania designed to discover the fate of her great-uncles and aunts who disappeared during the Holocaust.  This slide-lecture will feature photographs of the many clues they followed in learning the truth – actual letters, survivor testimony, historical photos, government documents, maps – and the actual sites in Lithuania that they visited. She also illustrates the pre- and post-Holocaust migrations of relatives that made possible her worldwide network of family members today.  The presentation will be held in Jerome Richfield 315 from 12:30 to 1:45 p.m.
