Holocaust author speaking at Grayslake museum

Grayslake Heritage Center and Museum will host an author of a Holocaust book at 2 p.m. Saturday, May 3.

Marty Brounstein will discuss his book, "Two Among the Righteous Few: A Story of Courage in the Holocaust" at the facility at 164 Hawley St.

Brounstein will share the story of Frans and Mien Wijnakker, who saved the lives of at least two dozen Jews during World War II and the Holocaust. The true story has a personal connection to the author, which he'll reveal during the free program.

For more information, contact museum Executive Director Dave Oberg at (847) 543-1745 or doberg@villageofgrayslake.com.
