Gusta Berger was born as Gusta Friedman on January 23, 1923, in Tarnopol, Poland. She is one of the many Jewish survivors of the Holocaust. Her childhood was spent living on her grandparents’ farm with her sister Mina, and they remained there until Gusta was twenty years old.[1]. In 1943, as the threat of the Nazis grew closer, the two sisters left the farm and pretended to be Christians, with Gusta taking on the name Waldislava Urbanska, to avoid the concentration camps[2] After the war, Gusta worked at a Jewish committee that served the survivors of concentration camps by granting them false identity papers in order to let them reach Palestine. It was there that she met her husband, Sol Berger, another Holocaust survivor. Sol invited her to travel with him on his journey to Palestine, and the two proceeded to Romania, where trains and ships were said to be regularly leaving for Palestine. They remained in Romania for several weeks, after two of which they married. Soon after their wedding, they found that the transportation to Palestine had ceased. The couple resolved to move down to Italy, where they stayed at a displaced persons camp.[2]. In 1946, their first year in the displaced persons camp, their son Jack was born[1]. After a three year stay at the displaced persons camp, the family traveled up to England in order to begin the process of obtaining American visas[2]. In 1950, after a two-year wait, the family emigrated to the U.S., where their daughter Marlene was born, and where the family has remained since. Gusta Berger has since said that her greatest hope is that her family, consisting of her children, her four grandchildren, and her six great-grandchildren, will ‘always live in freedom and happiness' [1] 1. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=https://www.thehumanelementproject.com/gusta-berger.html|title=Gusta Berger|last=|first=|date=|website=The Human Element Project|language=English|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2018-11-08}} 2. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=http://www.latimes.com/local/la-me-survivor-holocaust16-2009feb16-story.html|title=Living, under many names|last=Abdollah|first=Tami|date=2009-02-16|website=Los Angeles Times|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=2018-11-08}} Gusta Berger |
