Ayn Rand knew first-hand the evils of communism. Born in Russia, the Russian communists took over her family’s house when she was 12, leading her to flee eventually to the United States. She made the most of her newfound freedom, working in Hollywood and becoming a famous author. In this biographical book, we learn how this immigrant had such a major influence on Americans.
