The Photo
A Short Read by Lottie M. Hancock
A single photograph can capture a lifetime. It can also resurrect the past.
Every morning, a young New York photojournalism student shares a bench in a quiet park with Annie, a sweet, elderly woman with brilliant blue eyes and a face lined by history. Armed with a Nikon camera and a class assignment to capture a picture that “tells its own story,” the student takes Annie’s portrait.
But when the powerful photograph lands on a college professor’s desk, it stirs a shocking connection. What begins as a simple classroom project quickly uncovers a devastating history of survival, stolen childhoods, and a bond broken decades ago in the shadow of Auschwitz.
