Mid Century Jewish Mawrtyrs

My Social Life At Home Was More Specifically Jewish

At home, in Scarsdale, I had a pretty extensive social life. There was the temple and there was a Jewish dancing school where they arranged dances, so we did have that, very important, big dances. That was much more specifically Jewish. My friends would have been the sons and daughters of my parents' friends, mostly.
                                   
Did you feel like it was a big change from the community you had at Bryn Mawr?
                                   
Well, the friends I had at Bryn Mawr were not Jewish and for the most part the friends I had at Scarsdale were all Jewish.
 

Would you talk about different things or do different things together? Anything like that?
                                   
It was not so different. People are the same.
