    Biography
    Isaac Margosis is the father of the Museum survivor-volunteer Michel Margosis. Isaac Ben-Seef Margosis was born in Odessa on December 5, 1898 and studied under the foremost Hebrew poet of the day, Chaim Nachman Bialik. He became an active Zionist and settled in Brussels where he edited and published two weekly papers, the Jewish "Yiddishe Voch" and the French "Notre Opinion." Isaac was in Switzerland covering the World Zionist Congress when war broke out in September 1939. Isaac attempted to get visas in Vichy, but the efforts failed. As a journalist his life was most in danger since he had been publishing editorials denouncing fascism and despotism. Isaac escaped to Portugal in 1940, where he was relocated to Caldas da Rainha, and did not see his family again for several years. Isaac came to the United States in 1946.
