Eleanor's Story: An American Girl in Hitlers Germany
A TRUE TALE OF AN AMERICAN GIRL TRAPPED IN NAZI GERMANY
Growing up is hard enough now imagine doing it as an American citizen trapped
in Nazi Germany during World War II. That was the real-life situation of Eleanor
Ramrath Garner whose acclaimed autobiography has now been adapted by her granddaughter into a riveting one-woman show. Eleanor's Story: An American Girl in
Hitler's Germany traces Eleanor's path from the U.S. to Germany, where her family
moved in pursuit of work during the Depression. But when war breaks out as
theyre crossing the Atlantic, they can't return home and instead endure hunger,
fascist oppression and bombings in Berlin. Eleanor tries to maintain her American
identity as she feels herself pulled into the turbulent life roiling around her.
Desperately hoping for an Allied victory, Eleanor must first survive the Nazis...
and then the terrors of the Soviet occupancy.
