Pillar of Salt: A Daughter's Life in the Shadow of the Holocaust

Anna Salton Eisen grew up in a home where her parents¿ Holocaust experiences were a well-kept secret. She later moved to Texas where she became active in the Jewish community as a founding member of the first synagogue in her area. Serving as a docent for the Dallas Holocaust Museum and an interviewer for the Steven Spielberg's Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation, Salton Eisen continued to search for information about her family¿s survival and destruction in the Holocaust. In 2001, she co-authored with her father ¿The 23rd Psalm: A Holocaust Memoir.¿ Salton Eisen is also the subject of a forthcoming documentary about her father¿s life. She now conducts extensive research into the genealogy of her family and has discovered many original documents which record her father¿s concentration camp experience. Salton Eisen and her family reside in Westlake, Texas.
