She contracted polio, which shattered her dreams and after the 1956 revolution she sought refuge with her mother in Canada, Gabor recovered from polio, and became a nightclub performer in swinging Montreal.  She later earned a journalism degree from Ryerson University and worked in television in Canada, the Far East and Europe.
