Abstract

Dr. Manuel Hirshberg (1903-1985) was a pediatrician and epidemiologist in Bloomfield. He was also the physician to the Bloomfield Public Schools. He served as president of Mt. Sinai Hospital. His wife Beatrice (1906-1997) was a social worker and was very active in local charities, especially those for children. This collection would not directly serve as a research topic, but some of its materials could be useful supporting material for a study of the roles of women in the 20th century.
