Tema Schneiderman was a Polish woman who worked as a courier in the Jewish resistance in German-occupied Eastern Europe before and during World War II.[1] Born in 1917, she was one of a number of young Jewish women who traveled between Jewish ghettos to report on conditions, share information, reduce isolation, and encourage resistance.[2] Schneiderman was especially active in the ghettos in Warsaw, Vilnius, and Bialystok. On January 18, 1943, she was captured in the Warsaw Ghetto and deported to the Treblinka death camp, where she was killed.[3]
