The story of In America is inspired by the emigration to America in 1876 of Helena Modrzejewska, Polands most celebrated actress, accompanied by her husband, Count Karol Chlapowski, her fifteen-year-old son, Rudolf, the young journalist and future author of Quo Vadis, Henryk Sienkiewicz, and a few friends; their brief sojourn in Anaheim, California; and Modrzejewskas subsequent triumphant career on the American stage under the name Helena Modjeska.
