1961

Flor Kent

Sculptor. Saving Humans records "Kindertransport memorials by Kent at Liverpool Street Station, Westbahnhof (Vienna, 2008), The Holocaust Centre (Beth Shalom), as well as one at Hlavni Nádraži station (Prague, 2009) celebrating Nicholas Winton’s role organizing similar transports of children from Czechoslovakia to the UK."

Her Kindertransport memorial in Prague shows Nicholas Winton with two refugee children and a suitcase.

Kent is also an actress. IMDB provides the following details: Born Venezuela. Married David Kent in 1988. They have two children who both appeared in one of Kent's movies.

And it seems that Kent is also a doctor, an Aesthetic Doctor. 2021: she is working in aesthetic skin care in SW18.

It is possible that these are actually 2 or even 3 separate women, all with the same unusual name and looking very similar, but if so they are mightily confused on the web.

Our picture shows sculptor Kent at the centre back of a group at the unveiling of her Kindertransport memorial in Vienna.
