About the Author
Born in Kiev on November 1, 1937. My father, a world class Chemist, was murdered by the Soviets in 1941, 6 days before Kiev fell to the Germans. We retreated with the German front to Berlin in 1943. My mother remarried (George, a Russian Journalist) in 1943. I got my elementary schooling in Berlin (1945-1949). We were rescued by the Allied Commander in Berlin in 1949 and transferred to West Germany in 1949 (Cornberg-Fulda-Mittenwald) - with the intervention by Eleanor Roosevelt. My parents were debriefed in Mittenwald by Americans (1949-1951). We moved to Munich (1951-1957). When George was nearly caught by the Soviets in Munich again in 1957, we emigrated to the USA, March 15, 1957. Graduated from Franklin & Marshall College in 1960 with a BS degree in Mathematics. Entered the work-force in 1960 and continued with my post-graduate work at CCNY (MS in Math in 1963). Took further graduate work at Adelphi University in Mathematics while working full time.
