After years of practicing law in Seattle, Karen Treiger felt an unmistakable call to explore the story of her in-laws, Sam and Esther Goldberg. Treiger made the momentous decision to retire from her law practice and pull together the threads of her husband’s family story.  The result is the widely praised book, My Soul is Filled with Joy: A Holocaust Story. In it, Treiger chronicles Sam and Esther Goldberg's journey, including Sam’s escape from the death camp Treblinka, as well as her family’s experiences in Poland when they retraced the path from Treblinka to the pit in the Polish forest where they hid until their liberation.
