Do You Remember Me?
First Name:Tibor |
Last Name:Munkácsy |
Update:Now known as Tibor Sands, this survivor is very familiar with his photograph. It was used for his passport to go to England, and he still has a copy of it. This photo was very helpful in reuniting Tibor with family members, but not in a way that would be expected. When his photo was taken at Kloster Indersdorf, Tibor mentioned to the American photographer, Curt Riess, that his older brother lived in New York. The photographer laughed until Tibor told him his brother’s name. Riess knew Tibor’s brother, Martin Munkácsi, a prominent photographer who had worked for Harper’s Bazaar. Riess helped Lillian Robbins, a UNRRA official at Kloster Indersdorf, get in touch with Martin on Tibor’s behalf. Read more about Tibor Munkácsi. |
