Printmaker and painter Miklós Adler was born in Debrecen, Hungary. He attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Budapest from 1923 to 1934 before returning to his hometown, where he taught at a Jewish high school. In 1944, Adler and his family were arrested and deported to Auschwitz, but their train was rerouted to the Terezín concentration camp in Czechoslovakia, which was liberated in May 1945. After the war, Adler returned to his hometown and continued his arts career, producing a series of sixteen woodcuts, seven of which appear in A Survivors’ Haggadah, used by Jewish survivors in displaced persons camps near Munich for the first Passover after the war. In 1960, Adler immigrated to Israel.
