Crossing the Atlantic Ocean was going to be the biggest adventure of Frank Capra's life, but the five-year-old Sicilian boy's dreams were soon hobbled by the cramped steamship's unsanitary conditions.

Emerging from the darkness into a new world, Frank craned his neck to see the torch atop Lady Liberty's reaching arm. Awestruck, his heart swelled with a hope and gratitude that came to define his life and his work.
