Names From the Learning Center: ID Cards
Description:
Visitors to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's Permanent Exhibition receive identification cards. These identification cards describe the experiences of people who lived in Europe during the Holocaust. Designed as small booklets to be carried through the exhibition, the cards help visitors to personalize the historical events of the time.
Each identification card has four sections. The first section provides a biographical sketch of the person. The second describes the individual's experiences from 1933 to 1939, while the third describes events during the war years. The final section describes the fate of the individual and explains the circumstances-to the extent that they are known-in which the individual either died or survived.
