Her birth in a D.P. camp in Germany marked Ettie Zilber with a special responsibility.  Retirement from a career as an educator in international schools  in six countries has given her the opportunity to fulfill that responsibility –to research and document her family’s Holocaust experiences — and reflect on their impact on the next generation.

The author of Third Culture Kids: Children of International School Educators, and numerous professional publications, conducts workshops on cross-cultural sensitivity, international-mindedness, tolerance and global citizenship for youth and adults. She lives in Arizona with her husband of 44 years, and enjoys visits with her children and grandchildren.
