I rarely post anything personal on social media, but I think that this time I will break my own rule. My grandmother Olga passed away last week at the age of almost 103. She would have turned 103 on July 15, 2024. She was an absolutely amazing woman, fiercely independent. She survived the Holocaust, World War II, evacuation to Vorkuta, and all the hardships that the USSR threw at her and her family. I’ve been scouring my photo archive for photographs of my grandmother. This short series is from August of 2018 – she was playing cards with my daughter Daniella.
