Here is a photo (from 1995) reunion of Judy
Sperling Rubinstein (my cousin in Milwaukee, the survivor who was
referred to in one of your interviews), her cousin Fruma Rabinowitz
Herman (who was already in Israel prior to the war), and their friend
Gila. This must be the same person, although Judy's daughter called
her surname "Shulman" she probably meant "Shoham." Judy was a nurse,
so probably they studied together before the war, pre-med.
