What made Ayn Rand choose America—not just as a refuge, but as an ideal worth crossing an ocean to reach? In this vivid, archival account, “I Chose to Be an American” tells the dramatic true story of Rand’s discovery of America through silent films, her escape from Soviet Russia, and her determined struggle to build a new life in the United States. Long before The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, there was an ambitious young writer who refused to accept oppression, mediocrity, or “good enough”—and who saw in America the possibility for a greater life.
