Subject: Seeking translator to work in Yiddish archives in New York

Date: January 23, 2014 [sent to Mendele ***very*long ago but neglected by
the Untershames]





I'm writing on behalf of Professor William Forbath, a legal historian at
UT-Austin who is currently visiting at NYU Law School. Prof. Forbath is
engaged in a book project on Jewish lawyers and American legal thought and
is hoping to find a researcher interested in doing translation work
involving Yiddish-language archives in NYC. Interested researchers can
contact Prof. Forbath directly at wforbath at law.utexas.edu or get in touch
with me for more information at jeremy.kessler at yale.edu.
