Early Life and Politics
Donald Witzenberg was born in 1952 to a peasant family, his father being a farmer and his mother a milkmaid. The third of four children, he urked an existance in a rundown farmhouse in the South Russian sector until the age of 14, where he left school and moved to Andre City to live with his uncle. Here is began working as a market trader and began dabbling in politics, studying the works of Karl Marx. At 20 he joined the Andrehervian Communist Party and immediately impressed the leadership with his ruthlessness and determination. Three years later, when Witzenberg had acheived the position of leader of the ACP in the Central Gonard region, the ACP was shut down by security forces under the orders of the extreme right-wing Albert Smithson, who had recently seized power. Witzenberg was forced to go into hiding in the south of the Gonard Peninsula. He continued working for the now illegal underground ACP whilst using the job as a fisherman as both a source of income and a profession. In 1983 he married to his girlfriend of 5 years, Laura Gilani, and has since had five children: Basil, 20; Josef, 17; Elaine, 14; Jeremy, 11 and Anne, 8.
