Local author publishes WWII story
Feb. 01, 2021 at 6:00 am
To commemorate the 76th anniversary of the liberation of the infamous Auschwitz concentration camp on January 27, writer and WWII historian Monica Sands, who resides in Santa Monica, has just published a riveting memoir of her late father, Maurits Kiek, an anti-Nazi secret agent. In that capacity Kiek saved the lives of dozens of British and American pilots trapped behind enemy lines. For his unparalleled bravery he was awarded the Medal of Freedom by President Harry Truman.
In addition to decades of research, Sands’ “expertise” also comes from her mother who survived years in the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. But this page-turner is a tribute to her father for whom a city street is deservedly named in his home country of Holland.
