I am not here to judge everyone. I do not have that right.
With that said, I was deeply hurt, and slightly offended when I read about this fabricated Holocaust memoir. The fact that anybody would lie about anything to do with the Holocaust cuts deep into my soul. I have read many Holocaust memoirs myself and it is hard not to rethink that maybe something was amiss in those books.
I normally do not even read anything that has Oprah's name attached to it, but this sickened me enough to read it. Now Oprah's been doped before, so I am not surprised by that.
Just for the record: I am not Jewish.

How awful that the Rosenblats lied about their story and that the publishers and movie makers and Oprah didn’t figure it out. So sad.
Some Holocaust love stories are true. The NY Times featured a story about the famous comic book artists Stan Lee and Neal Adams and a story they were publicizing.
The story is about Dina Gottliebova Babbitt who was a 19 year old art student at Auschwitz. There she was asked by the Jewish head of the children's camp to paint something to cheer them up. Dina painted a mural of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and in the end, Dina's art became the reason for her salvation.
Painting the mural for the children caused Dina to be taken in front of Dr. Mengele, the Angel of Death. She thought she was going to be gassed, but she bravely stood up to Mengele and he decided to make her his portrait painter, saving herself and her mother from the gas chamber.
After the war, Dina applied for a job to be an animator and the person interviewing her turned out to be the man who created Snow White & the 7 Dwarfs for the movie. They fell in love and got married. Show White saved Dina's life twice!
