Remember Your Name

by Erik G LeMoullec

Overview

While sitting in traffic heading to her great-grandfather’s eighty-fourth birthday party, Hayden asks her dad why her great-grandfather speaks the way he does. What follows is a car ride she will never forget as she learns about his difficult childhood.
From living in the Lodz ghetto at age ten to surviving the hells of Auschwitz and a death march from Görlitz concentration camp at fifteen, Teddy Znamirowski faced unfathomable horrors, narrowly escaping death time and time again. Liberated at sixteen, he took on smuggling as a means to survive. It was not until the Bricha approached him and he became a lead operative – smuggling thousands of refugees across country borders – that he was finally able to begin his life again.
Teddy’s story is one of survival amidst horrific circumstances. The author does not sensationalize the suffering his grandfather and his family endured, but in this work of narrative nonfiction simply recreates this remarkable man’s early life during one of the darkest moments of human history.

He enjoys endurance sports and has participated in many road races and triathlons including marathons and half-ironman race distances.
Growing up a first generation American in a Jewish household in Monsey, New York is interesting -a strong emphasis on family heritage and a layer of Jewish guilt cover everything. After listening to the horrific and heroic episodes of his grandfather’s youth, Erik believed they were for a greater audience. Together with his grandmother, he observed as Teddy lectured audiences at middle/high schools, Holocaust museums and libraries, resulting in inquisitive questions and disbelief. When taking over the reins and presenting his grandfather’s story himself, the results continued.
