‘From Budapest to Hollywood: Searching for the Promised Land’ is a story of resilience, hope, and the pursuit of a better life. Katherine MK Mitchell’s memoir begins with her birth in Nazi-occupied Hungary. From there she survived war, the ill-fated S.S. Exodus, and communism before fleeing her home country once the Russians crushed the Hungarian Revolution. Her journey as a refugee brought her to New York, where she overcame countless challenges, ultimately making a name for herself in Hollywood. Katherine worked as an agent, writer, and story analyst, earning membership in the Writers Guild of America West.
Throughout her life, Katherine has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to honing her craft, sharing her stories, and inspiring others to live authentically and with purpose. Her memoir is a testament to what one can achieve when they refuse to give up hope and continue moving forward.
