Tatiana Rusesabagina(born October 24, 1958) worked as a nurse and her family was killed in a genocide.
Tatiana Rusesabagina (born October 24, 1958) is a Rwandan who, with her husband Paul Rusesabagina, survived in Hotel des Mille Collines during the 1994 Rwandan genocide, and saved over a thousand people from being murdered. When Tatiana was working as a nurse, she was facing discrimination because of her Tutsi ethnicity, and Paul arranged for her to be transferred to a different location in Kigali, where Paul was the manager of a hotel called the Hotel des Mille Collines. Tatiana's mother was murdered in the genocide along with other family members and their bodies were thrown into a pit with many others. Her father paid to be killed by shooting, so that he did not have to die a more painful and horrific death.
