Seller's Description:
Very good in Good jacket. xi, 239 pages. Frontis. Footnotes. Index. Inscribed by author on the fep. The inscription reads To Batya With ware regards and fond memories. Janice R. Blumberrg 2-3-85. Date stamp and pencil erasure residue also on fep. The DJ has slight wear and soiling, with small edge wear and tears. Foreword by Coretta Scott King. The author was Rabbi Rothschild's widow. While Janice played a key role as a partner to her two husbands in their important leadership activities, she also made her own distinctive mark, using her talents as a writer, speaker, and arts enthusiast to advance the cause of Jewish culture and to tell the rich story of the Southern Jewish experience, often from her own unique perch as a participant in, and shaper of, that history. Janice published One Voice: Rabbi Jacob M. Rothschild and the Troubled South, a book-length study based on a trove of materials from Rabbi Rothschild's papers. Janie Rothschild Blumberg (1924-2024) was a nationally-known as an author, Jewish communal leader, and cultural influencer. Janice graduated from the University of Georgia at the age of 18. She joined the American defense effort during World War II, working to combat malaria in the Panama Canal Zone for the Army Corps of Engineers and as an employee of the U.S. Army Signal Corps in Washington, DC. In 1946, she returned to Atlanta, where she met and married Rabbi Jacob M. Rothschild, a former Army chaplain who had recently become the spiritual leader of the city's flagship Reform synagogue, the Hebrew Benevolent Congregation. As a native southerner, Janice served as an effective ambassador for her husband's transformative agenda, helping to shepherd these new directions in Jewish communal life. Their partnership was particularly apparent during the dramatic events following the 1958 bombing of the Temple by white supremacists, who objected to her husband's strong support of public school desegregation. Resolving to push back against pressure, the Rothschilds invited Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and his wife Coretta, who had returned to Atlanta in 1960 after their stint in Montgomery, Alabama, to dine with them in their home, and the two couples became personal friends. Later, after King was awarded the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize, Rabbi Rothschild overcame great obstacles to convince local white power brokers to organize a gala dinner—the first integrated public dinner of its kind in Atlanta history—to honor King on behalf of the city. After Rabbi Rothschild's death in 1973, Janice married David Blumberg, an insurance executive from Knoxville, Tennessee. The couple relocated to Washington, DC, when Blumberg became the president of B'nai B'rith International.
