My mother toured South America playing the piano in the USO band in the years right after WWII. Tanya was the name given to her by the Russian family she boarded with when she came to NYC to go to Juilliard at age 16. She was a classically trained pianist who studied with Artur Rubinstein among others. I marvel at what a very different time it was. They were the generation who saved much of the world from fascism. Heroes all - and here we are again. But today just sending out love to all who take on motherhood; it’s still the biggest vote for love conquering all! 💕.
