- Summary
- "Eva Ebin was born in Munkacs, Hungary in 1926 to Jeno and Ilona Szegel. Her childhood dream was to become a physician, 'unheard of' for a woman at that time. Strong willed, determined and resilient, she refused to let anything get in her way - including the Holocaust. Eva was imprisoned in Auschwitz at age 17, losing her mother and most of her extended family upon arrival. She credits her survival to two things: the pact that she and her cousins made at Auschwitz to stick together no matter what, and her dream...This moving memoir begins with Eva's blissful childhood, then moves on to her harrowing experiences in the camps, liberations, medical school in post-war Europe, immigration to America, marriage to Dr. Leonard Ebin, and her illustrious career as a psychiatrist. What come through loud and clear in From DP to MD is the importance of family. Indeed, despite loss and solitude, Eva and Leonard built a loving home based on Jewish tradition and values, enriched by nearly two dozen grandchildren and over twice as many great grandchildren. Her legacy of commitment, care and connection continues"--from back cover.
