Overview

Finding freedom after WWII is just the beginning of Frank Levy's journey from Berlin to the Middle East to America. By the time he is 13 Frank is a pro at starting over, shifting languages and cultures, even changing his name in a life molded by events beyond his control. Yet no matter where he goes, he is always marked by his accent. In America he earns a degree in mechanical engineering, has a family and succeeds at a career in textile machinery. When Frank has it all together, fate intervenes and he must reinvent himself again. Along the way he wins an international award for sustainable technology. But with every effort he makes, a person, an experience or a story emerges from the past proving that the history any immigrant lives through matters.
