NJ #HolocaustSurvivor Tova Friedman publishes memoir − and becomes an unlikely #TikTok star. In September 2021, Goodman posted his grandmother's first videos about her experience in A#uschwitz. He warned her not to be disappointed if only 10 or 20 people ever saw them. That’s not what happened. First it was a hundred people. Then a thousand. Now, nearly half a million people follow her TikTok account at @tovafriedman. Her videos have been viewed 50 million times. https://www.northjersey.com/story/life/2022/10/03/tova-friedman-book-holocaust-daughter-of-auschwitz-memoir/69514725007/
