Relive and discover the remarkable evolution and contribution of Jewish people of Chicago, from the 1840s to present day. For many years Chicago had the third largest Jewish population of any city in the world. Through the medium of historic photographs, this book captures the remarkable evolution of the Jewish people of Chicago, from their immigrant beginnings in the 1840s to their present-day communities. It is a story of the cultural, religious, economic, and everyday life of Chicago's Jews. These pages bring to life the people, events, neighborhoods, and institutions that helped shape and transform today's Jewish community. The photos and maps, culled from the author's and other collections, paint a vivid and informative picture of Chicago Jewry. In addition to recalling the early immigrant German and later Eastern European Jews, this book delves into Jewish neighborhoods including the West Side, South Side, North Side, suburban communities, and Maxwell Street, a neighborhood which produced such prominent Jews as musician Benny Goodman, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Arthur Goldberg, Admiral Hyman Rickover, community organizer Saul Alinsky, and CBS founder William Paley. Chicago Jews have also made contributions to the city and the nation in the arts, commerce and industry, government service, entertainment, and labor, including seven Nobel prize winners. The images show Jews as peddlers and sweatshop workers as well as successful business entrepreneurs and professionals.

The Jewish community has long influenced and shaped Chicago, helping the city grow from its humble beginnings to the metropolis it is today. But too often, their contributions are forgotten. In Remembering Chicago's Jews, author James J. Finn documents the lives and achievements of Chicago Jews from 1832 to 1920. The stories of more than five hundred people are included, complete with their own biographies and explanations of how they contributed to Chicago's Jewish and secular communities. Vital statistics such as date of birth, marriages, children, and date of death are also provided when possible. Explore the deep relationship between Jewish pioneers and the first days of Illinois settlement, from the establishment of Chicago to the early 1900s-with Prohibition, the Red Scare, and the resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan gathering on the horizon. Supporting this impressive collection are two indexes, the first of which is a list of events by date and topic. The second allows readers to search for influential Jews by their vocations. Of interest to anyone with a passion for Chicago and Jewish history, Remembering Chicago's Jews is a meticulously researched companion to Hyman Meite's History of the Jews of Chicago.

The disappearing history of Chicagos Jewish past can be found in the religious architecture of its stately synagogues and communal buildings. Whether modest or majestic, wood or stone, the buildings reflected their members views on faith and their commitment to the neighborhoods where they lived in a time when individuals and the community were inseparable from their neighborhood synagogues, temples, and shuls. From Chicagos oldest Jewish congregation, Kehilath Anshe Maariv Temple (Pilgrim Baptist), to Ohave Sholom (St. Basils Greek Orthodox), to Kehilath Anshe Maarivs last independent building (Operation Push), come and explore Chicagos forgotten synagogues and communal buildings. Nearly 150 years of Chicago history unfolds in Chicagos Forgotten Synagogues as the photographs and accompanying stories tell of the synagogues past greatness and their present and uncertain future.
