“One Apron…One handkerchief…2 brass Candlesticks”: America’s Jewish Women, the Early Years
Join us as we celebrate Mother’s Day and take a closer look at the life of Mendes’ “A-Mazing” mother, Judith Cohen! Professor of history Pamela Nadell of American University will be exploring what it meant to be a Jewish woman and mother during the 18th and 19th centuries. In this lecture, as we learn more about the first Jewish women to make homes in America, we also discover the wider world of Judith Cohen’s son, “The A-Mazing Mendes Cohen.”
