Mrs. Ilse Stanley is an Angel among us. Watching her story just by chance, touched my soul. Her kind heartedness and determination to find humanity amongst the tremendous hate and fear of the time was and is true beauty. Thank you for sharing this wonderful "This is Your Life".
Mrs. Stanley is such a modest lady. She says she hasn't done anything, but in fact, she did such an extraordinary thing. I like episodes like this even better than the episodes featuring famous celebrities.
Thank you so very much for sharing this. I couldn’t stop smiling. What a beautiful smart, strong woman she was. The absolute poster child of kindness and generosity. ♥️
I also linked to this through the Guardian article: America is Now in Fascism's Legal Phase (America is now in fascism’s legal phase | The far right | The Guardian). What a talented family and what a tragedy for humanity that so many of her generation and outlook would sing no more. . .
I miss your sound mind, Jason. Peru is an authoritarian state right now. The indigenous people are being detained as terrorists. 52 people have died this month. #SOSPeru
Came here via The Guardian newspaper link. This is absolutely fascinating.
Fritz Lang, WOW! There surely needs to be more Ilse's in the world to make it a better, if not bearable place!

Whenever I need a shot of humanity, I come back and watch these great shows. They remind me of the way some people used to be
Love that this lady isn't lost to history.
This is an amazing story. Very cool lady.
Originally telecast on November 2, 1955.
Lovely.
