Reena Battle Centre 927 Clarke Avenue West Faye became a war documentarian at grave risk to her own life. During World War II there were approximately 20,00030,000 Jews who escaped the German ghettos and work camps and formed and joined organized, armed resistance groups. These resistance fighters were called partisans. Faye Schulman was with the Russian Moltava partisan brigade, whose encampment was near her hometown, of Lenin (formerly Poland) from 1942-1944. Along with serving as a doctor's aid, Schulman also took photographs, developing and printing the two-inch negatives beneath blankets in the forest. Faye Schulman was perhaps the only Jewish partisan to photograph Jewish resistance during the Holocaust. 209 - 1118 Centre Street, Thornhill, ON L4J 7R9 (905) 889-0276 x31 shalom@beitrayim.org www.beitrayim.org
