An hour long illustrated lecture 'The Women's Orchestra of Auschwitz: How playing music saved their lives but was art abused by the Nazis for their own ends?' presented by renowned author Anne Sebba
Anne Sebba FRSL is the prize-winning author of eleven books including the best-selling biography That Woman, the life of Wallis Simpson based on Anne’s discovery of 15 unpublished letters locked away in an attic trunk. Her next book was Les Parisiennes: How the Women of Paris Lived, Loved and Died in the 1940’s.
Anne has also written the biographies of Jennie Churchill, Mother Teresa and Laura Ashley and more recently the life of Ethel Rosenberg, electrocuted in 1953 aged 37 for conspiracy to commit espionage following a trial with multiple miscarriages of justice.
The Women’s Orchestra of Auschwitz is Anne’s most recent publication.

After the lecture we invite you to join us in the foyer for a glass of Greenhough wine or sparkling water and a slice of Christmas cake – Anne will be circulating at this time and available to answer any questions
