In the story of her life, Teresa Fischlowitz shares how she spent her seventh birthday on a train to the Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp; her family's rescue from that camp several months later; and the family's travel as refugees from Switzerland to Prague to Paris to Caracas, and finally to the United States. Teresa went to seventeen schools in six languages on three continents by the time she graduated high school in Los Angeles. After a brief career as an opera singer in New York Teresa taught elementary school for over 30 years in Los Angeles. In her retirement in San Diego she is an avid supporter of opera and classical music.
