Ted Bolgar (born Tibor Polgar), was born on September 12, 1924 in Sarospatak, Hungary. Ted and his family were deported to Auschwitz in May 1944. He was selected for slave labor with his father, whilst his mother and sister were sent to the gas chambers. He was later sent to the Warsaw ghetto to clear the rubble after the ghetto uprising on May 1943, from where he was forced on a death march to Dachau and worked on the construction of an underground factory in two satellite camps of Dachau: Mühldorf and Mittergars. In May 1945, the prisoners were forced into a train towards an unknown destination but the German guards abandoned the train after a few days. Ted and the other prisoners were found by representatives of the UNRRAA and transferred to the Feldafing displaced persons camp. Ted spent the summer there before heading back to Sárospatak in August 1945, when he learned his father had survived the camps. Ted Bolgar has two children, six grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. He lives in Montreal, Canada. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
