Biography
Lonka Korzybrodska (1917â1943), also known as Leah-Lonka Kozibrodska, was a member of the Jewish resistance in Poland during the Second World War. She adopted a Christian Polish identity, allowing her to work as a courier, smuggling messages, documents and money between resistance groups based in ghettos in Poland. On a mission to Warsaw, she was captured and imprisoned. After suffering months of torture and starvation, she was transferred to Birkenau, part of Auschwitz. She worked there as a translator but caught Typhus fever and died in March 1943.
