2G Holocaust Legacy

Zola is the daughter of two Holocaust Survivors, Israel Jutan ( Xavier Piatka) and Chayela Rosenthal who were born in Vilna, Poland.

Chayela was known as the “Wunderkind of the Vilna Ghetto” – “Songstress of Hope”, singing the songs her brother Leyb Rozental and others wrote for her to perform in the Ghetto Theatre. Read more here www.chayela.com
