From Holocaust Survivor to Presidential Tailor
At fifteen, I stood before Josef Mengele at Auschwitz, not yet recognizing the "Angel of Death" in his elegant monocle and shining leather boots. That day in 1944, my mother, five-year-old brother, sister Rivka, and grandparents were sent left-to their deaths. My father, sister Simcha, and I were sent right. Hours later, my father made the heartbreaking decision that we must separate to survive. "You are young and strong," he insisted. "If you survive by yourself, you must honor us by living, by not feeling sorry for us." I never saw him again. Each morning at 4:30 we endured roll call, where any sign of weakness meant selection for the crematorium. The ovens burned day and night. I forced myself to eat whatever was given-rancid coffee, soup with hair and insects, sawdust-filled bread-knowing that to be sick meant death. Killings were frequent and without provocation, a systematic psychological torture breaking our belief in the rewards of goodness. My first job was washing Nazi uniforms. When I accidentally tore an SS officer's shirt collar, he beat me mercilessly. A fellow prisoner taught me to sew, and I mended the shirt-then secretly wore it under my striped uniform. Strangely, both prisoners and guards treated me better when I wore it. That moment marked the beginning of my life's work-two ripped Nazi shirts helped build America's most prestigious custom suit company.
