As a child, she witnessed Hitler's march into Prague, attended a Soviet school during World War II, and sailed the seas with her father. In a multi-faceted career, she worked as a professional photographer, television producer, and book editor and critic. Eventually, like her father, she became a Russian specialist, but of a very different kind. She accompanied Ted Kennedy and his family to Russia, escorted Joan Baez to Moscow to meet with dissident Andrei Sakharov, and hosted Josef Stalin's daughter on the family farm after Svetlana defected to the United States. While running her own consulting company in Russia, she witnessed the breakup of the Soviet Union, and later became director of a women's economic empowerment project in a newly independent Ukraine. 600 10 $a Warnecke, Grace Kennan. 650 0 $a Non-governmental organizations $z United States $x Employees $v Biography. 650 0 $a Book editors $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women television producers and directors $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Women photographers $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Cold War $v Biography. 650 0 $a Consultants $z Soviet Union $v Biography. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20190502010909.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C34A303E6C9F11E9A39CB90697128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
