Edith Eger (Hungary, 1927) is a distinguished psychologist, writer, and Holocaust survivor. In 1944, as a teenager, she was sent to the Auschwitz concentration camp, where she endured the horrors of the Nazi genocide. After surviving, she fled to Czechoslovakia and later emigrated to the United States, where she earned a PhD in Psychology and worked under the guidance of Viktor Frankl, author of "Man's Search for Meaning". She is currently a professor at the University of California and runs a clinic in La Jolla, California.

Her literary work includes the books "The Ballerina of Auschwitz" (2018), a harrowing and hopeful testimony about her experience in the concentration camps, and "There Was No Prozac in Auschwitz" (2020), where she combines her personal experience with therapeutic strategies to heal trauma. She has been featured in documentaries and was chosen to give the tribute speech to Viktor Frankl on his ninetieth anniversary, during the International Conference on Logotherapy.
