Portrait of the Month - Anna Maria Steinbach

This month’s featured portrait is of Anna Maria Steinbach, a young Sinti girl from the Netherlands. Anna Maria was nine years old when her family was forced to board a train for Auschwitz where she and her family were killed, most likely on August 2, 1944—70 years ago.Jamie T, a student from Wellington High School in Florida created this portrait and says she will never forget Anna Maria’s story. See the portrait and read the story. It’s one way we can honor the memory of the thousands of Sinti and Roma who were murdered by the Nazi regime and all of those who suffer persecution today.
