Leo,
You wrote a ‘fabulous’ piece on me! The 1st one that I have ever felt that the journalist expressed my words in a professional and convivial manner. I would like to make arrangements to use your article as a link on MAHSM’s web site and distribute the article. Can you find time to help me figure out the ‘rights’ implications!
In fact, you have a wide selection of material that needs wider exposure that deals with Spanish speaking Spanish surname demographics. Let’s have a sit-down!!
Dear Leo Adam,
I recently found your piece about the Brandeis family of Omaha. What a fascinating and complete portrayal you crafted! Their Sand Hills ranch had a manager for many years under E. John, named Emil Malmberg. I am recently married to one of his sons, Jack who is now 72 years old. As soon as my sweetie began telling about his youth on the Brandeis place, I lit up, for I am Jewish. He didn’t know anything about the Jewish identity of that famous clan, didn’t even know what “Jewish” meant until recently. [He's getting the schmaltz from being married to me, so Jack is catching up.]
Anyway, I thought you’d like to know that there are 3 sons and 3 daughters of Emil’s along with ancillary relations spread all over the country. Emil always had one horse named Hugo, by the way. I am grateful for your 2-part essay on the Brandeis clan of NE. Hope you are involved in many worthy journalistic efforts!
Sincerely,
Robin Levin
