Holocaust Survivor Talk: Eva Nathanson

About
For the rest of the war, Eva hid in various homes. As the Soviet army approached Budapest, the Nyilas tried to kill the remaining Jews as quickly as possible. Eva and her mother were spared by a soldier. They were officially liberated in May 1945. After the war, Budapest was completely transformed by the new Communist regime. Eva was able to leave with her family in 1956 and arrived in the United States in January 1957. Eva settled in Los Angeles, where she raised two kids.
