Hana Brady (Hana "Hanička" Bradyová, Germanized in the writing on her suitcase as "Hanna Brady") (16 May 1931 in Nové Město na Moravě – 23 October 1944 in Oświęcim, Poland) was a Jewish girl and Holocaust victim. She is the subject of the 2002 non-fiction children's book Hana's Suitcase, written by Karen Levine.

Docu-drama film Inside Hana's Suitcase Premiere HotDocs 2009, Martin Knelman, Toronto Star, 29 April 2009.
Along with her older brother George, Hana was imprisoned by the German Nazis as a Jew, and sent to the Theresienstadt (Terezin) prison camp. In 1944, she was transferred to the Auschwitz concentration camp. While her brother survived imprisonment by working as a labourer , Hana was allegedly killed in the gas chambers a few hours after she had arrived on 23 October 1944.
Hana's Suitcase
The story of Hana Brady first became public when Fumiko Ishioka, a Japanese educator and director of the Japanese non-profit Tokyo Holocaust Education Resource Center exhibited Hana's suitcase in 2000 as a relic of the concentration camp. Visiting Auschwitz in 1999, Ishioka requested a loan of children's items, things that would convey the story of the Holocaust to other children.I went to Auschwitz in 1999 and asked for a loan of some children's items. I specifically asked[for] a shoe, this little shoe, and I asked for a suitcase.A suitcase - that really tells you a story of how children, who used to live happily with their family, were transported and were allowed to take only one suitcase.
[The suitcase] shows this journey. I thought an object like a suitcase would be a very important item to let children in Japan learn what happened to children in the Holocaust.
—Fumiko Ishioka
The suitcase turned out to be a very capable means of telling the story of the Holocaust, reaching out to children at their level.
In Japan, the Holocaust is so far away. Some people don't see any connection whatsoever. But when they look at the suitcase, these children were really shocked. 'She was my age.'That really helped them a lot, to focus on this one little life that was lost. They could really relate her to themselves and try to think of why such a thing could happen to a girl like her. Why the Jewish people? And why children?
They then realized there were one and a 6 million children like Hanna.
—Fumiko Ishioka
The suitcase has large writing on it, a name and birthdate and the German word, Waisenkind (orphan). Ishioka began painstakingly researching Hana's life and eventually found her surviving brother in Canada. The story of Hana Brady and how her suitcase led Ishioka to Toronto became the subject of a CBC documentary.
The 2002 book became a bestseller and received the Bank Street College of Education Flora Stieglitz Straus Award for non-fiction, the National Jewish Book Award, and several other Canadian awards for children's literature.

Director: Larry Weinstein, Canada, 2008, 93 minutes OPENING NIGHT FILM Friday May 22 | 7:30 PM | Granville 7 Theatre Second screening: Monday, May 25, 1:00 pm, Pacific Cinémathèque. Filmmaker in attendance at both screenings. Synopsis: One day Fumiko Ishioka, the coordinator of the Tokyo Holocaust Education Centre, received a battered suitcase with the name Hana Brady and the word Waisenkind (orphan) painted on the front. She had no idea that this suitcase would set her on a journey that would not only change her life, but also the lives of thousands of children around the world. With the help of her young students (called the Small Wings), Fumiko decided to discover all she could about a little girl named Hana. Her quest to put a face to a name and an old suitcase took her to the Czech Republic, where Hana was born in 1931, in the small village of Nove Mesto. When the Nazis invaded, Hanas parents were imprisoned and she was sent to a concentration camp in the walled city of Theresienstadt. In secret art classes, held without the permission of the Nazi guards, children like Hana drew what they saw and what they remembered of life before the war. These images, of picnics, swaying trees, and people holding hands, prompted Fumiko to go even further. Her search eventually led to Auschwitz, where Hanas name was marked with a single check mark, meaning she had died at the camp. But just above Hanas name, another name was inscribed: George Brady, who had survived the war. Not <b>...</b>
