| Abstract: |
Marcus Rosenwasser (1846-1910) was a Bohemian Jew who immigrated to Cleveland, Ohio, as a child and returned to establish
his medical practice there in 1868, after studying abroad. His specialties were abdominal surgery and gynecology. His positions
included president of the Cleveland Board of Health, vice-president of the American Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology,
and fellow of the Association of Obstetrics. The collection consists of tributes to Dr. Rosenwasser upon his death, biographical
materials about Rosenwasser and his family, correspondence, notes, and a notebook detailing many of his medical cases.
