Elizabeth Jefimova is a recent graduate of the Macaulay Honors Program at Brooklyn College. She double majored in Chemistry and History, with a double minor in Biochemistry and Biology. During the course of her studies she began interviewing veterans and collecting stories of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) both during and post-service. Using her interviews, Elizabeth wrote her senior thesis on the effect that military masculinity and media had on the portrayal of veterans with PTSD. She was a part of the Brooklyn College Listening Project which showcased one of her interviewees, a WW2 veteran who arrived to Dachau Concentration Camp on the day of its liberation. Although her parents wanted her to have a career in medicine, Elizabeth will pursue a career that will allow her to work closer with veterans and military servicemen. She is excited to continue her work with Columbia University and learn more about the art of storytelling and oral history. Go OHMA!
