My Voice: Peter Mittler
Peter Mittler was born in Vienna in April 1930 and witnessed the Anschluss in 1938 when life changed overnight for Jews. He escaped to England on the Kindertransport in January 1939 and stayed with a sponsor family in London. Peter’s parents had also managed to get to England, but his father was sent to an internment camp on the Isle of Man for 9 months during the war.
