Zydower was born in 1930 in a small village in the Galicia region which at that time was within the borders of Germany . As a Jewish family , the Zydowers faced discrimination and oppression under the Nazi government so in 1939 the three Zydower children were evacuated to Britain on the last Kindertransport train to leave the territory before the start of World War II . During The Holocaust both of Zydower 's parents were deported to and then killed in the Auschwitz concentration camp
