Dr. Eleanor Isaacson Guest Speaker

Abandoned as a toddler in Nazi Germany, American-born Eleanor Isaacson survived bombings, starvation, Russian occupation, and a stint as a child smuggler—all before reaching her teens. After a childhood of hardship in Germany, Eleanor came to the United States at age 13. Though her past does not define who she is, it has helped shape her character, and she often has the chance to use the struggles of life to connect with audiences today.
