Lew Grade, via dalla Ucraina, nuova vita a Londra

da: Wikipedia

Lew Grade, Baron Grade Kt (25 December 1906–13 December 1998), born Lev Winogradsky, was an influential Russian-born English impresario and media mogul.
He was born in Tokmak, Ukraine, Russian Empire to Olga and Isaac Winogradsky.
In 1912 the Jewish family fled to a new life in the East End of London.
Isaac managed a cinema, while his three sons (the others were Bernard Delfont and Leslie Grade) attended the Rochelle Street School in Bethnal Green, near Shoreditch, where Yiddish was spoken by 90% of the pupils. For two years they lived in rented rooms at the north end of Brick Lane, then moved to the nearby Boundary Estate.
At 15 Louis became an agent for a clothing firm, and shortly afterwards started his own business.
