About this event

The Holocaust Center is proud to host the official book launch of Arthur M. Horwitz’s book, “Dual Identities: Living in Meier’s Shadow.” A photograph. A hidden truth. A lifetime of responsibility. Arthur Horwitz, the son of a Holocaust survivor, grew up hearing stories of loss and resilience. His powerful new memoir explores inherited trauma, identity, and healing. Join Arthur at The HC for the official launch of his book and a deeply personal conversation about his family’s legacy. The program will be followed by a book signing and dessert reception, with books available for purchase. Arthur Horwitz is a nationally respected journalist, publisher, and civic leader. His career has been recognized through his induction into the Michigan Journalism Hall of Fame, the establishment of the Arthur M. Horwitz Collection at the University of Michigan, and his designation as publisher emeritus of the Detroit Jewish News, where he served as publisher and executive editor for over thirty years. Arthur also shares his story with students at The HC as a Next Generation Speaker.
