Ryszard Horowitz

Ryszard Horowitz (born 5 May 1939) was born in Kraków, Poland. At the age of only four months, he and his family were transported into a series of Nazi concentration camps following the German invasion of Poland. After years of imprisonment, he and his parents survived the horrors of the work camps. Ryszard, among the youngest known survivors of Auschwitz, was only five years old when the Russian Army liberated him.
