He secretly photographed people and events in the ghetto, leaving a historical record. In this photographic information book, the reader is taken on a journey with Grossman and his camera. The text emphasizes hope for the future, rather than the suffering of the past.

My Secret Camera Bewertungen

These photographs catch life in the Ghetto as though by surprise... They strengthen the heart because they show the victimised finding reason to laugh and joke... In the end that is what they record most vividly - the subjects' inextinguishable appetite for life. Howard Jacobson

Über Mendel Grossman

MENDEL GROSSMAN (1913-1945) was born into a Hasidic family but chose to follow his artistic inclinations. Although Mendel Grossman died just before the end of the war, a small portion of his photographs survived. They may be viewed today at the Museum of Holocaust and Resistance at the Ghetto Fighter's House in Kibbutz Lohamei Haghetaot, Israel and at Yad Vashem, Jerusalem. FRANK DABBA SMITH was born in California. He studied Linguistic Anthropology at Berkeley (BA Hons) and qualified as a teacher. He was ordained as a rabbi at Leo Baeck College, London, in 1994. Frank also works as a freelance photographer: he has self-published Miriam and Lewis, a photographic album of his work documenting the development of his children and The Economist has published over 150 of his images. His rabbinical thesis, Photography and the Holocaust, analyses the use of photography as a communications and propaganda device by all parties involved in the Holocaust.
