- Fred Terna (b. 1923) is a Holocaust survivor and painter living and working in Brooklyn, NY; he was born in Vienna, and lived in Prague from 1926-1940. From 1941-1945, he was an inmate in German concentration camps, among them Theresienstadt, Auschwitz, and Dachau; he moved to Paris in 1946 and informally studied at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere and the Academie Julien, where he was inspired by the work of the Cubists and post-Impressionists ( (Fred Terna web site, viewed January 8, 2021:) )
