Photo Essay: Anonymous Girl
This photography essay was inspired by a journal entry from the Book "Salvaged Pages; Anonymous Girl". A young unidentified girl recorded the rations her family received while living in the Lodz Ghetto from February to March of 1942. She focused primarily on her family life, food and day to day experiences. The Lodz Ghetto in Poland was a 'provisional dwelling' for the Jews after a series of expulsions, completely segregated from the surrounding population. It was considered a major ghetto where hunger, starvation and death were rampant due to malnutrition.
