He was born to Wilhelm Christopher and Emma Augenstein in Ellmendingen (part of Keltern), Germany in 1923. His father was a master machinist, and in 1927 moved the family first to Brooklyn, NY and later to Providence, RI to work for the Speidel Corporation. Bruno learned to speak English from other children on the street, and taught his parents during the evenings.
