From Nazi Germany to Hammond Indiana

Update: 2021-05-06

Description

Peter Plotke speaks of his father, Frank Plotke, a Rabbi who fled from Nazi Germany, and discussed how his family was rescued from the Holocaust.

After a few different American Pulpets, Peter Plotke's family finally settled in Hammond. Later, Peter went to Indiana University, where he was one of the founding members of the AEPI Jewish Fraternity at IU.

Funding Support for the IN-Jewish History Podcast came from the Leonard & Marion Freeman Charitable Fund.
