In Episode 183 of The Dana Download, Dana Arschin sits down with award‑winning author Susan McClelland and illustrator Zena Frey to uncover the extraordinary true story behind Susan’s upcoming book Honor—a tale of a Jewish family’s two‑year hiding on a Ukrainian farm—and the artistic journey that sprang from it. Susan shares how on‑the‑ground research in Ukraine and archived family letters breathed life into the narrative, while Zena reveals how reading her father’s story transformed her relationship with art, memory, and resilience. From five‑minute charcoal sketches of Debra Messing to the power of survivor testimonies, this episode blends history, creativity, and heart. Tune in for honest conversation, a few laughs, and why keeping these stories alive is more urgent than ever.
