Much
has been written about the historic Yalta Conference in February 1945, when
Churchill, Stalin and Roosevelt met to decide the future of the postwar world.
Little, however, is known about the role played behind the scenes by three
young women who were chosen by their fathers to travel with them to Yalta, each
bound by fierce family loyalty, political savvy, and intertwined romances that
powerfully colored these crucial days. Situated in the political maelstrom that
marked the transition to a postwar world, the Daughters of Yalta is a
remarkable story of fathers and daughters whose relationships were tested and
strengthened by the history they witnessed and the future they crafted together.
Purpose: Learn about the lesser known but equally important role of the
Daughters of Yalta
Facilitators: Jane Alter, Mary Tousignant, Mo Winograd, Jan Johnson (Guest
