Lotte and her family were Holocaust survivors with a remarkable story that resulted in them not only all surviving, but reuniting as a family in New York in 1946. Navigating Europe and eventually over to the United States as a young child, Lotte had to rely on her tenacity, competence, and capabilities in order to survive. Despite the obstacles that Lotte has had to overcome throughout her journey, she has an unbelievably positive attitude about life even at the age of 96.
