Ep. #214: Curiosity & Genealogy: The Stories We Tell, with Jennifer Mendelsohn

Choose to be Curious

Journalist and genealogist Jennifer Mendelsohn helps rediscover and tell stories that might otherwise be lost. She specializes in helping Eastern European Jewish families shattered by the Holocaust reclaim their history. In 2022, she co-founded the DNA Reunion Project at the Center for Jewish History, which seeks to promote DNA testing as a tool for helping Holocaust survivors find family. Her curiosity practices have deep journalistic roots and she'd be the first to tell you: it's not magic.
