Nonna Bannister
Nonna Lisowskaja Bannister (September 22, 1925 – August 15, 2004) was the Soviet-born American author of ''The Secret Holocaust Diaries: The Untold Story of Nonna Bannister'', a collection of diary entries and memoirs she wrote before, during, and after her time in a World War II German labor camp and kept hidden in a pillow. She kept her diary and her experience during the war a secret from the family she built after emigrating to America until her old age, when she asked that the diary be published after her death. She died in 2004 and the book was published in 2009 with contributions from Denise George and Carolyn Tomlin.
==Ancestry==
Nonna's maternal grandparents were Yakov Alexandrovich Ljaschov and Feodosija Nikolayevna Ljaschova. Yakov's father, Alexander Alexyevich Ljaschov, had been a Russian count and Cossack. Yakov himself had served Nicholas II of Russia as an Imperial Guard and was a large property owner in Russia and the Ukraine. He was killed while attempting to escape Russia in 1917. Feodosija's father was a wealthy landowner named Nikolai Dezhnev. When her husband Yakov was killed, Feodosija took her children (including Nonna's mother Anna) to one of their estates in an area of the Ukraine called Santurinowka (later annexed to Konstantinowka) which was still relatively untouched by Russian communism.〔Bannister, Nonna (2009-03-20). ''The Secret Holocaust Diaries: The Untold Story of Nonna Bannister'' (p. 16-19). Tyndale House Publishers.〕
Nonna always suspected that her father's family had been Jewish and that her father, Yevgeny, had changed his family name from Lisowitz or Lishkowic to Lisowsky in an effort to sound more Russian. Yevgeny was born in Warsaw, Poland to a wealthy family; his grandfather had owned at least 17 estates in Poland and the Ukraine.〔Bannister, Nonna (2009-03-20). ''The Secret Holocaust Diaries: The Untold Story of Nonna Bannister'' (p. 24). Tyndale House Publishers.〕 Yevgeny's father was named Johan Lisowsky. Nonna never met anyone from her paternal extended family, heightening the mystery surrounding their background.
Nonna's mother Anna was sent to St. Petersburg to study music and art and it was here that she met Nonna's father Yevgeny, also a student at the time. After their marriage, Yevgeny attempted several times to get them out of Russia and back to his family in Poland but without success so they settled in the city of Taganrog where Anna's family owned another house.〔Bannister, Nonna (2009-03-20).
