The Last Generation

Maddy's Story

Hi and Welcome to The Last Generation. I’m Maddy Kramer. 

In 2004 my grandma passed away and I never got the chance to ask how did she survived The Holocaust. Growing up I knew she was Hungarian and that she survived the war but not really how that impacted her life and how her own life impacted my mom’s and even mine. I wish I had the chance to know her more, learn her language and really know her. 

Since 2017 I have the idea that I needed to bring families together to have the chance to talk to their grandparents and ask all the questions they couldn't, because we are the last generation to get to know the stories while they're alive. 

You're going to hear an accent because I was raised in Argentina, where my grandma escaped after The War. 

I hope you enjoy listening to these families having the most wonderful conversations. I loved every second of it. I felt like the luckiest person in the world to get to know these survivors.
