Rita S Botwinick

RITA S. BOTWINICK is on the faculty of Florida Atlantic University, where she teaches European history and the Holocaust. Dr. Botwinick, who holds a Ph.D. from St. John's University, was born in Winzig, Germany and lived there until the age of sixteen, when she and some members of her family escaped to the United States. After World War II, contacts with former Winzigers were renewed--as a result she was able to personally document the events that occurred in Winzig in the 1940s.
