Beyond what people have told me, I've discovered everything I know about my dad by searching his name — in myriad variations — on the internet.
My mom called him Misha, but on Google, he’s better known as Mikhail Weinstein, Mikhailo Weinstein, Moses Isaakovich Weinstein, Moisei Isaakovich Weinstein, or Mykhaylo Isaakovich Weinstein.
