Jan Jarboe Russell (born in Beaumont, Texas) is an American journalist and non-fiction writer.
Russell graduated from University of Texas at Austin. Her work appears in Texas Monthly. [1]
"The Train to Crystal City" combines accounts of terrible sorrow and destruction with great perseverance, and there is one really unexpected turn. Though their internment may have been, in theory, the worst thing the children of Crystal City ever experienced, some of them formed lasting bonds. So they have reunions. They have had a newsletter, Crystal City Chatter. And they have their memories, which they shared with Ms. Russell. She now shares them with readers who'll wish these stories weren't true.
The Eiserlohs, along with the 10,000 Germans and German-Americans and their children who were displaced as enemy aliens during the same period, have yet to be acknowledged.
