Both Zsuzsa and István left Hungary with their families after WWII, settling in Cleveland, Ohio and taking an active part in the Hungarian community there. István talks about the shift in life and politics as a result of Hungary being on the losing side of WWII, and Zsuzsa talks extensively about how the DP generation was treated by both the earlier Hungarian immigrants and by American society.
