Author, The Politzer Saga
This week, Ira spoke with Linda Ambrus Broenniman, author of The Politzer Saga. In this researched episode of “Ira’s Everything Bagel,” Linda talks about the story of the box with documents that survived a house fire and led to finding out her Catholic father was Jewish ; her quest going back eight generations; why the documents were written in Hungarian; finding the right person to help her, which turned out to be Andras Gyekiczki a Hungarian sociologist and lawyer; being surprised at what she found; why she had never intended to write a book; how she organized and contained the material; by writing it, it made her ancestors come alive; the reaction of her family to her research; and why her mother, who was Catholic, was an honoree in Israel at Yad Vashem.
Linda Ambrus Broenniman grew up in Buffalo, New York. She is the middle child of seven born to Hungarian physicians who survived World War II and started their new life in the US in 1949. She graduated from Swarthmore College with a BA in psychology. Several years after getting her MBA from Carnegie Mellon, Linda left mainstream corporate America to follow her path as an entrepreneur, building companies in technology and biotech. She let her passion for uncovering hidden potential in unexpected places guide her. And she allowed this passion to fuel her search for her hidden family. Linda lives in Great Falls, Virginia with her husband of 28 years and their dog, Juno.
