Behind the Jewish Museum of Milwaukee's "Stitching History from the Holocaust" exhibit.

When the Nazis occupied Czechoslovakia in 1939, tens of thousands of Jews applied for visas to anywhere. Among them, Paul Strnad and his wife Hedy, a dress designer. In an exhibit called "Stitching History from the Holocaust," the Jewish Museum of Milwaukee is now displaying the dresses Hedy once designed and could never realize.
