Crayon drawing of a girl with a basket created by a young girl while living in hiding

Julia Schor was born Betty Julia Ensel on April 4, 1937 to a non-Jewish German mother, Rose Marie Schink, and a Jewish father, Guy Weinberg, in Amsterdam, Netherlands. During World War II, Rose Marie Schink hid twelve Jews in the attic of her house in Blaricum, Netherlands, and was in contact with the Dutch resistance movement. Julia attended school under her mother's maiden name in order to avoid suspicion about her Jewish ancestry. Julia, her mother, and all of the Jews hiding in their house were liberated by Canadian forces in May 1945. 

The drawing was donated to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in 2002 by Julia Schor.
