Biography

Abba Naor is a Jewish Holocaust survivor. He was born in Lithuania on 21 March 1928. At the age of thirteen, Abba, his parents and his two brothers were forced to move to the Kovno Ghetto. His older brother was shot dead at the Ninth Fort. The family was later deported to the Stutthof concentration camp, where Abba saw his mother and his younger brother for the last time. Abba Naor was then transported to different subsidiary camps of the Dachau concentration camp to do forced labour under atrocious conditions. In the spring of 1945, he was sent on a death march. After his liberation by the US army he met his father. Abba migrated to Israel and started to work for the Mossad. Today, he visits schools and Universities as a contemporary witness and helps in the fight against the forgetting of Nazi crimes.
