Her father remarried, so her cousin became her stepmother. Hitler’s regime entered the area, and life became precarious, leading to her incarceration at Auschwitz at age thirteen. After the war, she was sent to America, where her new life included three husbands, three daughters (one of whom has Down syndrome), and an ongoing search to recover her feelings and joy in life. She has been in ongoing Jungian analysis, became a Rubenfeld synergist, and at age seventy, was ordained as a rabbi. Now in her ninth decade, she takes Tai Chi Chuan classes and performs interfaith marriages around the world.view less
