David Faber (25 August 1928 28 July 2015) was a Polish Jew who survived nine concentration camps in occupied Poland and Nazi Germany. Faber would be incarcerated within nine different concentration camps, where he would endure witnessing most of his family members killed right in front of him, including his brother Romek who was tortured in front of him. Faber would go on to write about the horrific experiences in his memoir, Because of Romek. He would later dedicate his life to remembering his family through both his memoir and through education. He was also an award-winning educator and lecturer on The Holocaust.
