The Aftermath
"The reason my book is called Neither Yesterdays Nor Tomorrows is because I instinctively learned -- to forget the bad things in the past. I mean this goes on till now. If something bad happens, then a year later I don’t remember it. I remember the good things."
After graduating from a high school in Oregon, George Elbaum attended MIT (BS, MS, and PhD in Aeronautics & Astronautics and Nuclear Engineering) and worked in the aerospace industry.
George Elbaum always stayed away from his memories of Holocaust, as he struggled to come to terms with his Jewish identity, but everything changed after watching the movie "Paper Clips". He realized that his story could make a difference. He said "...we who survived the Holocaust have a responsibility to tell our stories to give hope to the slogan 'Never again'. Furthermore, he began sharing his story, through speaking publicly about it and by writing a book titled, Neither Yesterdays Nor Tomorrows. In his book, George Elbaum describes his memories through the eyes of a child during and after World War II.
