"This year's speaker will be Na- tan Sharansky, Soviet dissident and human rights activist. On March 15, 1977, Natan Sharansky was abducted by the KGB from a friend's apartment in downtown Moscow. He was ar- rested and charged with espionage and treason against the Soviet Union, crimes punishable by death. His next nine years were spent in prison and labor camps, including 400 days in punishment cells and over 200 days on hunger strikes. | Anatoly Sharansky was born on January 20, 1948 in Donnetsk in the Soviet Union, and was edu- cated at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. While working as a computer program- mer he became involved in dissi- dent activities, making a special commitment to Soviet Jewish - emigration. = In the spring of 1973 Sharansky applied for an exit visa. His appli- cation was denied and he was subsequently harrassed by the KGB - subject to random arrests, prevented from joining his wife, Avital, when she left for Jerusalem in 1974 (one day after their mar- riage), and the object of constant surveillance by the KGB. His im- placable conviction to refuse to cooperate with the KGB is the tenet that sustained Sharansky during his years in the gulag. His consis- tency placed him above suspicion with his fellow prisoners and al- lowed the KGB no opportunity to break his inpenetrable will. During Sharanksy’s nine years in Soviet prisons, his wife, Avital, campaigned world-wide for his freedom. Tens of thousands of people wrote to him during his imprisonment and, while he never received them, those letters served as a constant reminder to the KGB that people all over the world cared about his fate. On February 11, 1986, Soviet authorities finally released him and he joined Avital in Jerusalem, where he formally took the Israeli name, Natan. Currently, Sharansky serves as leader of the Israel-based Soviet Jewry Zionist Forum, a new or- ganization uniting Soviet Jewry SUPERIOR INSURANCE | FOR AUTO, HOME, BUSINESS AND LIFE AT THE LOWEST POSSIBLE PRICE » JOE MASEYCHIK and Erie Insurance Group provide ~ policyholders with as near perfect | ~ protection and service as is humanly possible. | - Why not make us prove it! 150 S.
