Ruth Sherman was one of 20,000 European Jewish refugees who arrived in Shanghai in the late 1930s and early 1940s, fleeing Adolf Hitler’s Nazi regime. As a girl in Berlin, Sherman saw Hitler twice in parades in the city’s streets, each time running away before others in the crowd could force her to salute him. The centenarian shares her story with students globally answering questions about her flight from Berlin and her family, friendships, and everyday life as a teenage refugee in China from 1939 to 1947.
Only around 400,000 of the Holocaust’s 3.5 million survivors (the last of a pre-war European Jewish population that was nearly 10 million strong) are still alive today, and that number shrinks daily as more and more survivors pass away. That makes opportunities to talk directly with people like Ruth Sherman all the more imperative now.
Creativity is born through real stories and the Limitless podcast was birthed from sharing stories to ignite, inspire, and help creatives on their creative path.
