Maria von Trapp
Maria von Trapp was an Austrian singer and the matriarch of the Trapp Family Singers, known for their escape from Nazi-occupied Austria and subsequent immigration to the United States. She became a cultural icon through the musical and film 'The Sound of Music,' which is based on her family's story. Despite the romanticized portrayal, the real-life experiences of Maria and her family were more complex, involving challenges and adjustments as they settled in Vermont, where they established a successful lodge.
