Autor

Toby Knobel Fluek (1926-2011) was born in the eastern Polish village of Czernica. In 1942, she and her family were forced by the Nazis into the nearby Brody ghetto. After her escape and years in hiding, she was married in 1949 and emigrated with her husband to New York, where she remained until her death. In 2018, The Florida Holocaust Museum added more than five hundred of Fluek's artworks and personal items to its collection, and it continues to share her work in exhibitions and outreach programs. Fluek's daughter, son-in-law, two grandsons and their wives, and four great-grandchildren also strive to ensure her extraordinary legacy.
