Physicist Max Born is singer Olivia Newton-John’s grandfather

From Physicist Max Born is singer Olivia Newton-John’s grandfather by Neo.  

Max Born was a German Jewish Physicist and Mathematician at the wrong place and wrong time (pre-WWII Nazi Germany).  Quoting Wikipedia:

In January 1933, the Nazi Party came to power in Germany. In May, Born became one of six Jewish professors at Göttingen who were suspended with pay; Franck had already resigned. In twelve years they had built Göttingen into one of the world’s foremost centres for physics. Born began looking for a new job, writing to Maria Göppert-Mayer at Johns Hopkins University and Rudi Ladenburg at Princeton University. He accepted an offer from St John’s College, Cambridge. At Cambridge, he wrote a popular science book, The Restless Universe, and a textbook, Atomic Physics, that soon became a standard text, going through seven editions. His family soon settled into life in England, with his daughters Irene and Gritli becoming engaged to Welshman Brinley (Bryn) Newton-John (Olivia Newton-John’s parents; Born is Olivia’s grandfather and Irene is her mother) and Englishman Maurice Pryce respectively.

The open and tolerant Anglosphere is such a beneficiary of these traits.  Britain, Australia and the US all took in these high competency, high performing refugees, gave them shelter and opportunity and in turn were rewarded in the fields of Maths, Physics, Music, and Movies.
