Rachel Miller

Shortly after, the Schutzstaffel (SS) arrested Rachel's father and uncle, sending them to the Drancy internment camp. Tragically, both men died in the camp's hospital in December 1941, victims of brutal German medical experiments.

In July 1942, when Rachel was just 9 years old, her mother sent her to live on a farm that operated as a summer camp for children. Three days after Rachel left, her entire family was taken by the Nazis.

Once in the U.S., she lived in five different foster homes.

At the age of 17, in 1950, Rachel got married. She had two children and eventually moved to Los Angeles.
