Barbara Feigin is an amazing woman who has written about her life, just so that her children would know their history, especially since she would discover not having known much about her parents' history. Barbara's story is an encouraging one - of life, but also of sharing the venture of that experience with one's own family. Of immigration, and the invaluable contributions of immigrants to our shared American heritage. Her parents escaped Germany in WWII, making a 17 day train journey through Eastern Europe to Yokohama, and from there to a ship across the Atlantic, bound for Seattle. Barbara was 2 years old when her finally laid roots in Chehalis. She would later attend Whitman College and Harvard Business School.  Barbara shares her story in "My American Dream—A Journey from fascism to Freedom". www.barbarafeigin.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
