From the Shtetl to the Stage - Alexander Granach - Bog

Brilliantly relates the remarkable story of Albert Granach's unlikely path from a poverty-stricken, rough-and-tumble childhood to success on the German stage. This is an account of a daring, curiosity-filled, and perceptive Jewish child from poor towns in Galicia who was seized with a passion for the theater, and who overcame great odds to become a leading stage and film actor in Weimar Germany.
