About the Author

Born in Lodz, Poland, on July 21, 1932, Pinchas Gutter was the only member of his immediate family to survive the Holocaust. In 1945, he was liberated and taken to Britain with other children orphaned by the war. Pinchas lived in France, Israel, Brazil and South Africa before immigrating to Canada in 1985. Since arriving in Canada, Pinchas has dedicated his spare time to caring for the aged, helping the disadvantaged and educating students and adults on the Holocaust. He is the first Holocaust survivor to have his storytelling and his likeness immortalized in an interactive three-dimensional projection in the USC Shoah Foundation's New Dimensions in Testimony. Pinchas Gutter lives in Toronto.
