Note from Donor:
At age seventeen or eighteen my mother, Svetlana Lana Adamović (1953 – 2011), spent one year as an exchange student in Scottsdale, Arizona from 1970 – 71. She lived with the Fattaleh family that had seven children. I was named after one of the daughters called Nina. In that exchange year my mother went to her first big concert (Santana), and played Tzeitel in a production of The Fiddler on the Roof.
