The last time [Hanna] Tennenhaus was in the limelight was in the early 1960s following the publication of her novel Eva (Aire Publications). The fictionalized version of her very real survival of the Holocaust received a fair amount of attention in the day. The novel is out of print, but is still available at some libraries.

Tennenhaus grew up in a town outside of Nuremburg, Germany - her most-famous classmate was Henry Kissinger - and her memories of Hitler's rise to power run deep.

In November 1998, she wrote a first-person account of her memories of Kristallnacht for the Canadian Jewish News.

Tennenhaus's parents saved her and her siblings from the wrath of the Nazis by sending them to England with a nanny, but were not able to escape themselves. Both died in concentration camps.

Against all odds, Tennenhaus has retained a quick sense of humour which surfaces in her video greeting when she jokes about being over 100 years old.

"It's all too big for me to digest," she said. "But I'm giggling like a schoolgirl about it."
