Abstract
Hilde Hornung was born in Neu Schowe, Yugoslavia, and lived with her father, mother, and two siblings. At age 2, she and her family were forced to leave their home, and they endured horrible conditions in three starvation camps. They were finally able to flee into Hungary and then Austria in the late 1940s. Hornung and her family immigrated to Cleveland when she was thirteen. In Cleveland, Hilde participated in a local organization where she was able to connect with fellow Germans through activities such as dancing and soccer.
