Edward Lesko
Edward Lesko arrived in Hamtramck from Poland in 1986 after the economic
system collapsed in his homeland. His wife, Liubovi came from Moldova
in 1998 and Luba, their nine year old granddaughter followed just a few
months ago. Although Edward yearned to move back to Poland during the
first couple of years after he arrived, he now feels more American than
Polish. He enjoys the freedom the U.S. has to offer. Luba goes to Dickinson
Elementary where she enjoys her teacher and newfound friends. She likes
playing with her computer and Barbies. Luba missed her family back in
Moldova so much that her grandmother set up a collection of clowns from
all over the world to help Luba feel happy in her new home.
