Annika Tetzner was born in Praha, Czechoslovakia, to a Jewish family. In 1942, the family was deported to Theresienstadt Ghetto in Czechoslovakia and later was deported to Birkenau. She is the only survivor of the family. Growing up with a non-Jewish family, she got her education and married. After losing her husband, she finally settled in Israel; there she still lives. She has basically written about the Holocaust and finds it is important to tell the younger generation about what happened during the Holocaust. She is also a known artist with several exhibitions in Europe.
