We are honored to have Sonia Levitin as our commemoration keynote speaker. Born in Nazi-dominated Germany in 1934, author, playwright, and painter Sonia Levitin will share her story of escaping from Berlin as a child with her mother and sisters. Sonia has written over 40 novels and picture books for young children and several plays. In recent years, she has rediscovered her love of painting and is a part-time resident of Park City.

"I have given keynote speeches about the Holocaust, always emphasizing that history must be a tool for inspiring change, for taking action," says Levitin. "I believe that good literature must inform as well as entertain. A good book should also take the reader into unknown places, not only in this world but into the past and future."
