At the age of nineteen Inge managed to find her way to America from Berlin to start the greatest adventure of her life. This is the story of that adventure. She was told on her first day of work by one of her mentors at The Mennen Company: ?The door of opportunity is open. We are not going to serve anything to you on a silver platter, but you can have whatever you want here, if you work for it.' She did, and she quickly integrated herself into her new country. She married Malvern Gross in 1958. Her life became a celebration of freedom as she and her husband traveled widely, including many return trips to Berlin, a pioneering automobile trip to the U.S.S.R. at the height of the Cold War, and more recently a trip to the winter huts of Antarctic explorers Shackleton and Scott just 850 miles from the South Pole. In between her many adventures she and her husband raised two fine children.Inge's story above all else expresses her love of this country and the freedom and opportunities that we enjoy, which too often so many of us seem to take for granted.
