| | Photograph Collection | Save | | 1 | Title: | Carl Stokes Photographs
| | | | Creator: | Stokes, Carl | | | | Dates: | 1940-1971 | | | | Abstract: | Carl Stokes (1927-1996) was the mayor of Cleveland, Ohio, from 1967-1971. Stokes was the first African American mayor of a major American city and the first African American Democrat in the Ohio State Legislature, where he served three terms from 1962-67. As mayor, Stokes launched a number of programs to alleviate the problems of urban decay. Chief among these was Cleveland: NOW!, a joint public and private program with plans to raise $177 million in its first two years to revitalize Cleveland. The program was discredited due to the Glenville Shootout in July, 1968. Under Stokes, Cleveland City Council passed the Equal Employment Opportunity Ordinance, and HUD resumed funding projects aiding in the construction of over 3,000 new low- and middle-income housing units. Stokes became a newscaster with NBC television in 1972, and returned to his law practice in Cleveland in 1980. In 1983, Stokes was elected a municipal court judge. The collection consists of formal individual portraits of Carl Stokes, individual and group portraits of the Stokes family and friends, city officials, local and national celebrities and political figures, and individual citizens. It also includes candid and formal group portraits and views of official functions of the mayor, functions of individual city departments and commissions, and local community groups. Included are portraits of Hubert H. Humphrey, Edmund Muskie, Rev. Billy Graham, Pope Paul VI, entertainers Bob Hope and Bill Cosby, and Congressmen Charles Vanik and Louis Stokes. Events depicted include Cleveland NOW! activities, urban renewal and housing rehabilitation, the Glenville shootout, and youth activities. | | | | Call #: | PG 429 | | | | Extent: | 2.60 linear feet (5 containers) | | | | Subjects: | African American mayors -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | African American politicians -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | African Americans -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Civil rights -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Politics and government -- Photographs. | Glenville (Cleveland, Ohio) -- Photographs. | Judges -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Mayors -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Stokes family -- Photograph collections. | Stokes, Carl -- Photograph collections. | Stokes, Louis, 1925- -- Photograph collections. | Urban renewal -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Vanik, Charles -- Photograph collections.

| Photograph Collection | Save | | 2 | Title: | Judah Rubinstein Photographs
| | | | Creator: | Rubinstein, Judah | | | | Dates: | 1839-2002 | | | | Abstract: | Judah Rubinstein was an archivist, historian, author and research associate for the Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland, and a well-known authority on Cleveland Jewish history. He helped to establish the Cleveland Jewish Archives at the Western Reserve Historical Society in 1976. He provided research for a number of books on Cleveland Jewish history and co-authored the book "Merging traditions: Jewish life in Cleveland." The collection consists of 4000 black and white images presented as prints, slides, contact sheets, and negatives, all relating to Cleveland, Ohio, Jewish history. Of note are businesses, public and religious schools, synagogues, theaters, and communal activities in the 19th and first half of the 20th century, particularly in the Woodland, Glenville, and Kinsman neighborhoods. Images of Jewish holiday and life cycle celebrations are also found here. Also of note are portraits of prominent individuals and families, including Moses Alsbacher, Alfred A. Benesch, Aaron and Moses Halle, Maurice Maschke, David N. Myers, Samuel Rocker, Dr. Marcus Rosenwasser, Sigmund Schlesinger, Rose Pastor Stokes, Simson Thorman, Leo Weidenthal, Leon Wiesenthal, and Martha Wolfenstein. Rabbis and cantors represented in this collection include Gustavos Cohen, Jacob Frommer, Benjamin Gittelsohn, Samuel Goldman, Isadore Kalisch, Arthur J. Lelyveld, David Leby, Abba Hillel Silver, Daniel Jeremy Silver, and Samuel Wohl. While some of the photographs here can also be found in PG. 186, Jewish Heritage Exhibit photographs, and in "Merging traditions : Jewish life in Cleveland" (1978 ed.), the contact sheets and negatives contain many images that are new. | | | | Call #: | PG 528 | | | | Extent: | 3.01 linear feet (3 containers and 1 oversize folder) | | | | Subjects: | Rubinstein, Judah -- Photograph collection. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Societies, etc. -- Photographs. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Biography -- Photographs. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- History -- Photographs. | Jews -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Social life and customs -- Photographs. | Jews -- United States -- Photographs. | Rabbis -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Cantors (Judaism) -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jewish businesspeople -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jewish women -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jewish families -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jewish day schools -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jewish religious schools -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jewish athletes -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jewish neighborhoods -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Jewish theater -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Portraits, Jewish -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Schools -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Synagogues -- Ohio -- Cleveland -- Photographs. | Judaism -- Customs and practices -- Photographs. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- History -- Photographs. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Biography -- Photographs. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Photographs. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Social life and customs -- Photographs. | Woodland (Cleveland, Ohio) -- Photographs. | Glenville (Cleveland, Ohio) -- Photographs. | Kinsman (Cleveland, Ohio) -- Photographs.
