Portraits for Posterity


Holocaust survivors from Haringey have shared their amazing stories for a photographic exhibition. Portraits for Posterity was started three years ago by photographer Matt Writtle and writers Jacki Reason and Jan Marsh. The exhibition, at the Jewish Cultural Centre in Golders Green, Barnet, runs until March 18.

Joan Salter: “Being a Holocaust survivor was the last thing I wanted to be. I just wanted to be normal.”
