Weston and his wife survived the Holocaust but didn't want to become permanent witnesses to it and live the rest of their lives proclaiming their suffering and losses. It would demand a life on an emotional roller coaster. "We don't want to become freaks. As survivors, we are condemned to life. We want to return to the sanity of normal living. Being a continuing witness to the Holocaust is not the way to return to a normal life, but is the way to remain a prisoner of the insane past." Having lived under Nazi and Communist oppression made him appreciate the freedom and culture of the US. He became the first foreign born to receive the coveted "Americanism Medal" awarded by the DAR.
His autobiography has won the 1998 AUTHORLINK AWARD for biographies. Mr. Weston is semi retired and lives on his horse ranch near Austin, Texas.view less
