ネットで調べたらこう書いていた。
Mario Capecchi was born in the Italian city of Verona in 1937 to Luciano Capecchi [2], an Italian airman who would be later reported as missing in action while manning an anti-aircraft gun in Libya,[3] and Lucy Ramberg, an American-born[4] daughter of Impressionist painter Lucy Dodd Ramberg and German archaeologist Walter Ramberg. During World War II, his mother was sent to the Dachau concentration camp[4][5] as punishment for pamphleteering and belonging to an anti-Fascist group,[6]. Prior to her arrest[2], she had already made contingency plans by selling her belongings and giving the proceeds to an agricultural family near Bolzano[3] to provide housing for her son. However, after one year [7], the money had been completely depleted and the family was unable to care for him.
The four-and-a-half year old was left to fend for himself on the streets of northern Italy for the next four years,[3], living in various orphanages and roving through towns with other groups of homeless children.[7]
施設ではホームレスの子どもと住んでいて、あちこちを転々としていた。
母親が刑務所からでてきた迎えに来た時は栄養失調で殆ど死ぬ寸前だった
He almost died of malnutrition. His mother, meanwhile, had been freed from Dachau due to the arrival of the United States military[7] and she began a year-long search for her son. She finally found him in a hospital bed in Bologna, ill with a fever and subsisting on a daily bowl of chicory coffee and bread crust. She took him to Rome, where he had his first bath in six years.[7]
In 1946 his uncle, Edward Ramberg,[2] an American physicist at RCA, sent his mother money to return to the United States. He and his mother moved to Pennsylvania to live at a Quaker commune called Bryn Gweled,[8] which had been co-founded by his uncle. (Capecchi’s other maternal uncle, Walter Ramberg, was also an American physicist who served as the tenth president of the Society for Experimental Stress Analysis.[9]) He graduated from George School, a Quaker boarding school in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in 1956.
