Dania Rosa Nasca

**If you read this book in any format, please consider posting a review on AMAZON/GOODREADS** Dania Rosa Nasca was born in 1958 in Holguín, the City of Parks, Oriente, Cuba, the year the Cuban Revolution drove Batista from power. She lived in Cuba during Fidel Castro's hijacking of the Cuban government, his brutal consolidation of power, and his ill-advised and disastrous takeover of all private business. In 1970 at age twelve, with her parents and only a few other relatives, she immigrated to the United States on a U.S.-sponsored Freedom Flight. She works as a financial counselor for the University of Rochester’s Strong Memorial Hospital. She closely follows world affairs, especially events in Cuba and other communist countries. A proud Cuban American and a hockey mom who hates snow, she lives in Rochester, New York, with her husband, Tony, their son, Anthony, and their Chihuahua-Manchester terrier. Rochester has been her home ever since she arrived in the United States. *Includes pictures *Includes a bibliography for further reading *Includes a table of contents ********* THE FOLLOWING LIBRARY SYSTEMS CARRY THIS BOOK: 1.
