Life in a jar The Milken Family Foundation [production] ; project director, Norm Conrad

Publication | Library Call Number: DVD 16

A Catholic Polish woman rescued over 2,500 Jewish children from certain death during the Holocaust in Poland. Her heroic actions were never told until three students in Kansas were looking for information for a National History Day project. Their research led to the Life in a Jar Project, a play recounting the story of Irena Sendler, and her story became known to the world.
