    • Physical Description: 1 Jan 1950, Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; DAVID N GREENLEE: She was very assertive. She was bright, but not very well educated, no college. She was a strong presence in our family when I was growing up. Looking back, I realize that I carry some of her opinions—biases—today.
    • Physical Description: 2 Jan 1950, Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; There was often an angle to her comments and views that was destructive and created collateral damage in her personal relationships. She liked to play against type.
    • Physical Description: 3 Jan 1950, Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; For example, she was of pure German descent but was prone to say things like the Germans “started all the wars” and every German male should be “castrated.”
    • Physical Description: 4 Jan 1950, Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; She said this kind of stuff in front of Germans. She was particularly vivid in condemning the holocaust. She liked to say she contributed to Hadassah, the Jewish women’s charitable organization, although she was not Jewish.
    • Physical Description: 5 Jan 1950, Philadelphia, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; From time to time, though, she would let slip in an anti-Semitic comment. At the same time she was a strong supporter of human and civil rights, at least in the abstract. That influenced me greatly.
