Complete Story of the One Thousand Children
Who are the OTC kids? Why? Their tortuous OTC escape paths and safety in U.S.A. (12 minutes)
Ambassador Richard Schifter's One Thousand Children (OTC) Story. His very moving story about himself and his parents, and his efforts to help them escape Vienna (he failed - they were murdered). His successful later life defending human rights. (18 minutes)

Claude Kacser's OTC Story. Very slow-moving, yet importantly it is typical of many OTC'ers' stories. It tells the life-determining impact that the OTC experience had at the time, and can have upon an OTC'er's later personal, professional, and emotional life. (30 minutes)
Thea Lindauer's One Thousand Children Story (OTC) story 1934-1937. Her OTC story. Importantly, this also presents developments in Hitler Germany during that time, and their specific negative impacts upon her Jewish family that she left behind. (44 minutes)
