CHAPTER 1
My Inspirations
Let me give you a brief background of my family. I lived with my maternal grandmother, who emigrated from Germany before World War II with my grandfather and mother and settled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. My grandmother was a quiet but strong woman. Imagine bringing your family to a new land, not speaking the language, having to find a place to live and get a job, and then going through the Great Depression.
My grandparents had one daughter, my mother. My mother never really talked about her childhood, except to say that her father never hugged her or told her he loved her. But my grandmother was loving even in the midst of trying to cope with all the challenges of a new country. My grandfather eventually divorced my grandmother and left for parts unknown, leaving my grandmother to care for my mother and try to make a living. My grandfather was an uncaring, very selfish person. I don't ever remember meeting him.

I lived with her until I graduated from high school.
My father was my other inspiration. He also emigrated from Germany with his family when he was young and settled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. My dad was an accomplished musician and was first chair violinist in Germany. German schools were very diff erent from American schools. They were extremely disciplined. If the lines going in from recess were not perfectly straight, whoever was out of line received a hard slap.
My father started school in the United States around the age of ten. This was a challenge because he spoke no English. A few years after coming to America, his father passed away, leaving my father, his older and younger brothers, and his mother. This had to be extremely hard on my grandmother. My memor
