Zisman was a 13-year-old redhead when he arrived at Auschwitz-Birkenau on Tishah B’Av of 1944. Born in Kovno, Lithuania, he had been imprisoned in the ghetto before eventually reaching Auschwitz along with 137 other young teens from his hometown. Only five would survive. Zisman received a blessing from the previous Lubavitcher Rebbe and says, “I believe strongly that his blessing carried me through all I experienced.”
