Here she tells the extraordinary story of her family: of her father, Lance Samson, who left Hamburg in 1938 for London on the Kindertransport. And of her mother, Esther Cheo Ying, the author of Black Country to Red China, a memoir that moves from Shanghai to Dr Barnardo's and back to China where she became a Major in Mao's Army.\r\n\r\n5x15 brings together five outstanding individuals to tell of their lives, passions and inspirations. There are only two rules - no scripts and only 15 minutes each.\r\n\r\nLearn more about 5x15 events: http://5x15stories.com\r\nTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/5x15stories\r\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/5x15stories\r\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/5x15stories<img src=\"http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/5x15stories/~4/eDOshgrTbBw\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\" alt=\"\"/>","author_name":"Stories and inspiration from 5x15"}
