One focus of the conference on Friday was the child experience.  The holocaust survivor speaker described experiences with his father, the second survivor speaker describes the protection she had from nuns as a very small child and how she learned to understand how her wartime experiences would effect her for the rest of her life. 

 

During an afternoon panel of three women one participant discussed a cookbook and other cookbooks that emerged from the starved concentration camps, while a projected image of the 2009 American Girl doll, Rebecca Rubin, upstaged everything else about the conference with its eloquent idealized sweetness.
