I once thought the Linowitz family contributed most among Trenton Jews, but I never knew the all about the Leven family. Did you? Danny called me several years ago; how can I contact him?

This is wonderful! I did it before-maybe 6+ years ago. Please warn folks who are allergic to poison ivy or oak. I didn't ever have it before I helped with the graves. Sadly, I can not help anymore, due to health reasons.

Keep up the good work.

I will send the physicians’ photo to my friends whose fathers were doctors to aid identification.

A.   Richard Ross Keep up the good work. Joyce Levin Some notes to Levin Family story As Broadway actor, Dan appeared in the Diary of Anne Frank. He also appeared in the theatrical production, A Gift of Time” with Henry Fonda. He (Louis Levin) and his wife were blessed with two sons, Jonas and Robert. Jonas Levin had three children and one granddaughter.   Josh Levin was manager of Cafe Society in NYC. Dan Levin wrote a story himself: Hi Arthur, Joyce sent me this latest draft of your work and I appreciate all the labor you are putting into this history. I know Joyce gave you some notes and I have a few to add. I worked as an apprentice at three different summer stock companies: The Westport  Country Playhouse in Ct; The Bucks County Playhouse in New Hope and  The La Jolla Playhouse in La Jolla, CA. To be correct in my chronology, "The Diary Of Anne Frank"opened in   October, 1955 just after my Fulbright year in London. The army came afterwards   as I was drafted after 10 months in the Broadway play of "Diary".   Joyce mentioned that I was in "A Gift of Time" with Henry Fonda.  It ran for three months on Broadway. The other star was Olivia de Havilland. The acting credits for my summer stock days should only include plays by  Pinter, Osborne, O'Neill, but not Ibsen or Chekhov or Shaw. Those last three were  done in college. Forget those. The Shakespeare plays were done in Repertory (Hamlet,  As You Like It, Julius Caesar) at The Old Globe in San Diego and (Hamlet,  As You Like It and A Midsummer Nights Dream) at the McCarter Theater in Princeton. with the APA Rep Company. July 13, 2017 Mike Kuzma As a suggestion, many of the ancient "public burial grounds" like Mercer  Cemetery on South Clinton Ave. near the train Station was also neglected and  verged on desecration.  Someone assembled a volunteer group and cleaned it up nicely.  This was a few years ago I had read this. I was always interested in that spot, and tried to buy it for development many decades ago.  Sammy Gordon's law partner was on the board, and we wound up 2 votes short. You may want to look into some volunteer group, or a college work program for credits situation. Good luck. Jill Mosovich Hi Art, The letters are necessary & surprising. Thanks to everyone  who decided to act.  Regards, Jill Mosovich  Art Finkle, The Unkempt cemeteries have been a problem that needs be addressed. I have family  buried at 3 of the cemeteries mentioned in your letter. Please keep me informed if a group is assembled  to help clean them up. I am interested in helping for this cause. Benjamin Racusin Estelle Finkle, Jerusalem Hello, Cousin Art, how nice to hear from you, and to know that you are still active in  the Society.  I don't hear from my other cousins, so you made me homesick! Take care, and I hope you will be in touch again. Regards, Cousin Estelle Finkle
