Abstract: Samuel Kleinman (1893-1972) immigrated to the United States from Poland at the age of 12. He worked as a stagehand in Cleveland, Ohio, a profession he pursued until late in his life. He and his wife Dorothy were the parents of four sons, among them Jack Kleinman, a World War II veteran who was one of the benefactors of the Regensburg 12, a group of Jewish children who were displaced persons after the war and whom he helped to survive after the war ended. Another one of his sons was Bennett, who became a well-known lawyer. The collection consists of one photograph album.
