This year’s featured speakers will be Dr. Steve Salzberg, a Baltimore resident and son of a Holocaust survivor, and Steve DiBiagio, son of a World War II veteran. The two met at The John Carroll School in Belair when DiBiagio was speaking at a Holocaust remembrance program about his father being a liberator of the Hannover-Ahlem concentration camp where Salzberg’s father was imprisoned.

They will be joined by Merle Silberstrom Ross, who will talk about being born in a Displaced Persons camp. The event will be moderated by  Robert Lang, news anchor and reporter for WBAL Radio.

The program will include a Holocaust artifacts display, a candle-lighting ceremony, musical selections, survivor testimonies and the announcement of student contest winners.
