Speakers Bureau

The Tennessee Holocaust Commission Speakers Bureau is able to offer schools, religious and civic organizations, and other institutions the opportunity to hear a Holocaust survivor share his or her experiences. Due to the age and physical health of these eyewitnesses every effort will be made to obtain a speaker.

The mission of the Speakers Bureau is to assist you in selecting a topic and speaker that precisely meets your needs and specific areas of interest. The Speakers Bureau, potential speakers, and THC staff will work with you to assure a presentation that matches the interest and age level of your audience.


If you are interested in arranging a speaking engagement please fill out a speaker request form and email to toni.a.smithson@vanderbilt.edu.  Please read the FAQ before e-mailing with any questions.

Note that due to the age of our survivor speakers, your organization may be asked to arrange travel.
