Several biographies have chronicled her stardom, but none has covered her intense experiences through five years of Nazi occupation in the Netherlands. According to her son, Luca Dotti, "The war made my mother who she was." Audrey Hepburn's war included participation in the Dutch Resistance, working as a doctor's assistant during the "Bridge Too Far" battle of Arnhem, the brutal execution of her uncle, and the ordeal of the Hunger Winter of 1944. She also had to contend with the fact that her father was a Nazi agent and her mother was pro-Nazi for the first two years of the occupation. But the war years also brought triumphs as Audrey became Arnhem's most famous young ballerina. Audrey's own reminiscences, new interviews with people who knew her in the war, wartime diaries, and research in classified Dutch archives shed light on the riveting, untold story of Audrey Hepburn under fire in World War II. 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 600 10 $a Hepburn, Audrey, $d 1929-1993. 650 0 $a Motion picture actors and actresses $z Netherlands $v Biography. 650 0 $a Motion picture actors and actresses $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Netherlands. 700 1 $a Gilbert, Tavia, $e narrator. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/12243507 $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/bsa_9781982623142_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20190802010403.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=30F1929CA78F11E99DEDB91B97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
