Stephan Lewy is a retired business executive who lives in Manchester. As a Jewish child growing up in Nazi Germany, he lived through the persecution of the Jews in the 1930s. In 1939 his family sent him out of the country for his own safety, and he lost touch with them for more than two years. They managed to reunite in America in 1942; then, in 1943, he was drafted into the US Army. He was in the force that liberated the Buchenwald death camp, an experience he has never forgotten. After the war, he earned his college degree and became a successful businessman. Now, he tells his story to student groups and others.
