Marc Mauer – A Suitcase of Letters: The Wartime Correspondence of Joe and Millie Mauer
After Marc Mauer’s mother died she left behind a suitcase of his parents’ correspondence while his father was overseas in World War II. Touching on questions of Jewish identity, political engagement, and family bonds, the hundreds of letters provide an intriguing look into how people raised in an immigrant New York Jewish community coped with this global disruption.
A Machar member for three decades and current member of the Machar’s Board of Directors, Marc will share insights into his family history, including excerpts from this collection.
He is a Senior Advisor to The Sentencing Project, where he served as executive director prior to his retirement.
