great interest in the Royalty family, and many famous actors
and actresses. At one point in her life she wanted to be an

life was some what normal until Hitler took over. Her life was
completely turned around when she went into hiding. The
only way she felt like she could express herself was through

the closest insight to the Holocaust.
