In 1942 as a young bride living in Paris, Janine May Levine refused to wear the mandatory yellow star ordered by the Nazis. Shedding her Jewish identity, she was able to find employment as a bookkeeper with a business secretly working against the Nazis. Her employer, who worked with the resistance, also had something to hide, and she assisted him with his mission to pass information to the Allies until she was nearly arrested. The complete story of Janine May Levine’s Holocaust journey can be found in To Life: The Past Is Present, Holocaust Stories of Hampton Roads Survivors, Rescuers, and Liberators.
