Daughters of Female Survivors Talk About Their Mothers' Influence on Their Own Lives

Titti Fränkel (Sweden) and Nina Halden Rönnlund (Sweden) have one thing in common: their mothers Livia Fränkel (née Szmuk, 1927-2025) and Mira Teeman (née Miriam Teeman, 1926-2008) were deported with their Jewish families from Hungary and Poland to Nazi death camps. All of them survived and emigrated to Sweden after the Second World War to start a new life.

We will talk with the two daughters about the impact of their maternal histories on their respective families. Was their persecution discussed within the family? Were questions asked? Was there silence? What did they learn from their mothers? How do they remember them?
