Abstract
A displaced medical scientist and a musicologist, Ancona decided to leave for the United States permanently after the anti-Jewish laws, with his wife, his teenage children, and his widowed mother. He leapt at the offer from a professor in the Medical School in San Francisco, whom he had met more than ten years earlier through his research interests. His father was the baritone Mario Ancona, acclaimed in the leading theatres of Europe and the Americas, whose opera collection Giacomo gave to Stanford University in 1974.
