Paul Goldstein has made it his mission to speak about his parents’ experiences in Nazi-occupied Poland—how his mother escaped from the Warsaw Ghetto, how his parents cheated death in concentration camps, and how his father took part in a historic revolt at the Treblinka extermination camp. 

With the aid of family and archival photographs and his parents’ written and video testimonies, he explains what can happen when hatred and antisemitism go unchecked and how his parents’ lessons of life, death, and survival impacted his own attitudes and behaviors.

 

Paul was the Keynote speaker at the University of New Haven’s Holocaust Remembrance Day and Morse Life’s Kristallnacht Remembrance Day.  He has presented to over 24,000 students, teachers, administrators, and adult audiences in CT, NY, NJ, DC, and FL as a personal tribute to those who survived and those who died during those years of unparalleled depravity and hatred. 

 

After a successful career in Marketing and Advertising, Professor Goldstein taught at West Conn University and the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. In addition to his current role as a Holocaust speaker and educator, he serves on the Holocaust Commemoration Committee of Fairfield, CT, and speaker bureaus for the Holocaust Learning Experience in Palm Beach County, Voices of Hope, and the Jewish Federation of Fairfield County.  

 

A native New Yorker, he resides between Connecticut and Florida with his wife Sharon.
