Anna Baltzer gives a multimedia presentation on her book and DVD: Witness in Palestine:  A Jewish American Woman in the Occupied Territories

Anna Baltzer is an American, granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, graduate of Columbia University and a former Fulbright Scholar.  Her once unconditional support for Israel was transformed by what she learned in the Middle East, and she became a tireless advocate for change in Israeli policies.  She has written Witness in Palestine:  A Jewish American Woman in the Occupied Territories, and has given her acclaimed presentation, "Life in Occupied Palestine:  Eyewitness Stories & Photos," in universities, schools, churches, mosques, and synagogues throughout the United States.  She is a contributor to three upcoming books on the Israel-Palestine issue and serves on the Middle East Committee of the Women's International League for Peace & Freedom and the Board of Directors of The Research Journalism Initiative, Grassroots Jerusalem, and The Council for the National Interest.
