All That Remains: Update
Over the past couple years, few stories we've done have received the level of feedback of "All That Remains," which ran in the November 2009 issue. This was a passion project of Ken Garfield. He proposed that we photograph and tell the stories of as many area Holocaust survivors as we could find. The result was a stunning, moving portfolio of Ken's words and Chris Edwards's photos. Ken was interviewed on several radio stations about the project, and he continues to speak to school and community groups.
A few weeks after the piece was published, a woman named Julianna Toth contacted Ken. Turns out she had her own Holocaust survival story. So we added her to the portfolio. To read her story, click on the last image in the gallery.

Richard Thurmond is editor and associate publisher of Charlotte magazine and its four sister publications. He started his journalism career as a sportswriter before he realized sportswriting = bad hours and low pay. Oh well. He's been on staff since 1995 and editor since 1999. Also, he thinks he is funnier than he really is, which is helpful information for reading this blog. Got something to say but too chicken to comment?
