What would you do for love? Would you be willing to risk getting your heart broken? Most of us would. But would you risk getting killed? Years Later We Would Remember is the unforgettable true story of Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Martin Kent’s parents, and how his Catholic father stood up to the Nazis to protect the Jewish girl who stole his heart.

Michael Berenbaum is widely considered one of the world’s leading authorities on the Holocaust. The author of 14 books on the subject, he was President and Chief Executive Officer of Steven Spielberg’s Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation. He was Project Director of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum for 10 years, leading to its creation, and then Director of its Holocaust Research Institute.
Darlene Basch LCSW has been counseling patients dealing with Holocaust issues in workshops and private practice for more than 20 years. Ms. Basch worked for Steven Spielberg’s Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation, where she developed and facilitated a worldwide debriefing program that trained people to interview survivors of the Holocaust, and traveled around the world training those interviewers.
Beth Cohen is the author of Case Closed: Holocaust Survivors in Postwar America (Rutgers University Press, 2007). Case Closed challenges the prevailing optimistic perception of the lives of Holocaust survivors in postwar America by scrutinizing their first years through the eyes of those who lived it. Cohen uncovers the heretofore-untold stories of survivors’ early years in America and reveals the complexity of their lives as new Americans. Ms. Cohen received her Ph.D. in Holocaust history from Clark University, and was a “Life Reborn” fellow at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum’s Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies.
