Biography
When he was only two years old, he and his mother left Hungary and sought refuge in France. Little Ivan was attending school in Paris at the start of World War II. After his mother died of an illness in Paris in 1941, Ivan was placed in the care of the OSE (Œuvre de secours aux enfants), which hid him in the countryside to protect him from the anti-Semitic persecution of the Vichy regime. He received a Protestant religious education, followed by a Catholic one.
