Anna Poray
Anna Poray or Anna Maria Poray-Wybranowska (10 February 1919 – 25 July 2013) was a Polish-Canadian scholar best remembered for her scientific research into the history of Christian Polish rescue efforts during the Holocaust in occupied Poland. She was a professional librarian with a PhD in political science, and Director of the Polish Library in Montreal. Poray-Wybranowska published a ground-breaking book entitled ''Those Who Risked Their Lives'' in 2007, featuring thousands of wartime stories and biographies of heroic individuals who, under the threat of death, helped Jews during World War II. Some 30,000 of them were murdered by the Nazis for trying to save Jews, wrote Poray.
