==Early life==
Sonia Levitin was born in Berlin in 1934 under a Nazi controlled Germany. Being of Jewish descent, she managed to escape persecution by traveling with her mother and two sisters to Switzerland. Her father, a prominent clothing designer, escaped to New York City and then to Los Angeles where he would raise Sonia and her sisters.〔Frischer, Rita Berman. "Sonia Levitin." Jewish Women: A Comprehensive Historical Encyclopedia. 1 March 2009. Jewish Women's Archive. (Viewed on May 13, 2015) .〕 Levitin would later write several novels about struggling as an immigrant in the United States, these include: ''The Journey to America'' and ''Silver Days'', a series about a family of German Jewish refugees who flee the horrors of the Holocaust.
Levitin, always an avid reader, attended University of California, Berkeley in 1952 where she would meet her husband, Loyd Levitin. The two married after only one year. She then completed a degree in education from the University of Pennsylvania.〔Frischer. p2.〕
