Linda Broenniman is a researcher, author, and storyteller who uncovered an extraordinary family history rooted in survival, strength, and hidden heritage. After discovering at age 27 that her family was Jewish—not Catholic as she had always believed—Linda began a decades-long journey to trace her ancestry. Her work culminated in The Politzer Saga, a sweeping memoir that blends personal memory, Hungarian Jewish history, and family legacy into one remarkable story.

In this episode, Linda sits down with Christina to discuss the discovery of her true heritage, the incredible resilience of her ancestors, and the emotional journey of piecing together eight generations of history. Linda shares how a forgotten box of documents, a family fire, and a passionate Hungarian researcher helped uncover a long-lost lineage. From hidden Jewish identity to surviving Nazi labor camps and political oppression, this episode is a moving reminder of the importance of knowing and preserving your family’s story.
