Keynote Speaker: Holocaust Survivor, Chemist, Award-Winning Author

Dr. Inge Auerbacher Biography

Holocaust survivor and human rights activist Inge Auerbacher spent three years as a child imprisoned in a Nazi concentration camp in Czechoslovakia, where out of 15,000 children, barely 1 percent survived. Following her emigration to the United States in 1946, she received a BS in chemistry from Queens College. Since then, she has worked for over 38 years as a chemist with prominent scientists in research and clinical work.

Auerbacher has also been a prolific author, writing not only poetry and articles but also books that have reached audiences worldwide. She is the author of six books which have been translated into nine languages: "I Am A Star: Child of the Holocaust," "Beyond the Yellow Star To America," "Running Against the Wind," "Finding Dr. Schatz: The Discovery of Streptomycin And a Life it Saved," "Highway To New York," and "Children of Terror." Her contributions to literature and education have earned her the Ellis Island Medal of Honor, the Louis E. Yavner Citizen Award, and an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters from Long Island University.

In addition to her educational efforts, Auerbacher has been an active lecturer on the Holocaust since 1981, speaking to diverse audiences across the USA, Canada, and Germany. Her story has also been the subject of documentary films that have garnered international attention. In 2013, she received further recognition with the Medal of Merit from the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg, the Medal of Merit from the city of Goeppingen, and the Federal Cross of Merit given by the President of Germany. Auerbacher continues to inspire with her resilience and dedication as a motivational speaker, sharing her experiences and insights on human rights and survival.
