The lady in the above picture, taken on June 22, 1948 on Tel Aviv's beach, is Miriam Tzur. Like almost all of Tel Aviv's population that day, she also rushed to the beach to see what all the commotion was about.
She was 16 at the time and she requested a photographer to take her picture.
It appeared in a special Independence Day supplement of Haaretz.

I wonder if we can find modern pictures of Israeli teenagers doing the same outside of Auschwitz?
I wouldn't be surprised.
(And Haaretz would probably print them as well)
