Her father and relatives perished at Auschwitz, while her mother and sister survived.

Keleti won 10 Olympic medals, including five golds, at the 1952 Helsinki and 1956 Melbourne Games. After seeking asylum in Australia in 1956, she moved to Israel, training the Israeli Olympic team until the 1990s. Her legacy exemplifies resilience and triumph.
