A friend reminded me of a Senate hearing witness from a few years back who was called to testify about his immigrant experience. Romanian-born Ovidie Colea fled oppression 50 years ago and went on to create a very unique business. He is the largest producer of Statue of Liberty replicas in America. The New York Times wrote about Mr. Colea's unique story a while back, as did Ancestry.com and his web site tells more.
