Book Description: "In 1986, fifty-one year-old Chaim Orlin visited the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation, visibly exhausted from lugging a large, heavy photograph album. Orlin explained that he had intended to entrust this photograph collection to a historic archive for some time. The impressive thirty-three pound album had been composed by his sister Cecila 'Zippy' Orlin from photographs taken during the period when the former concentration camp Bergen-Belsen was used as a Displaced Persons camp for Jewish survivors of the Nazi atrocities. Containing over one thousand photographs, the album provides a detailed reflection of daily life at the DP camp in the years following the end of World War II. Zippy Orlin had been a volunteer for the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee at the DP camp Bergen-Belsen. The history of Bergen-Belsen camp includes two extremes: death and survival. During the final months that Bergen-Belsen was used as a concentration camp under the Nazis, it was plagued by death. Upon liberating the camp on April 15, 1945, British troops found over 60, 000 emaciated, desperate survivors of various nationalities, and until 1950, Bergen-Belsen, which was in the British Zone of Occupation in Germany, was one of Europe's largest internally autonomous communities of Holocaust survivors...Accompanying the extraordinary photos, Jewish Displaced Persons in Camp Bergen-Belsen 1945–1950 includes Zippy's own fascinating, personal accounts of what it was like to live and work in Camp Bergen-Belsen as well as interviews with her relatives and contributions by leading researchers and writers who have written articles about displaced persons from 1945-1950 and the DP camp at Bergen-Belsen.
