Witness in Palestine: A Jewish American Woman in the  Occupied Territories

Anna Baltzer

Anna Baltzer is a 28 -year-old Jewish American Columbia graduate, Fulbright scholar, author, and the granddaughter of Holocaust refugees. As a volunteer with the International Women's Peace Service, Baltzer documents human rights abuses in the West Bank and supports Palestinian-led nonviolent resistance to the Occupation. When not in Palestine, Baltzer spends most of her time on tour with her acclaimed presentation, "Life in Occupied Palestine: Eyewitness Stories & Photos," and her popular full-color book, Witness in Palestine: A Jewish American Woman in the Occupied Territories. Baltzer has reached tens of thousands in more than 400 lectures and interviews on Palestine.
