by Hannah Kalajian, as told to Bernadine Sullivan

Millions of Americans know Hannah Kalajian as the Armenian immigrant who brought rice pilaf to American cuisine and at the same time developed a tremendously successful company, Near East Food Products. In this absorbing and inspiring memoir, Hannah Kalajian relates the story of her childhood in the small village of Duzce, Turkey; her flight from home in the aftermath of the Armenian Genocide; and the lonely journey that brought her, a young girl of thirteen, to New York City to face the challenges of a new life.
