Sami Steigmann
Sami was born in 1939 in a small village in Romania. He was only one and a half years old when his family was arrested in 1941. He was deported with his parents to the Mogilev-Podolsky labor camp, where they were held prisoners for three years. The Nazis conducted a number of medical experiments on Sami, and he still suffers from the after-effects of it today. In 1944, Sami and his parents were liberated by the Russian army. In 1946, a baby girl was born into the family. The four of them then returned to Romania for fifteen years before emigrating to Israel in 1961. [...+]
