My Daughter, the Teacher Jewish Teachers in the New York City Schools

The teachers Markowitz interviewed often agree with the assessment others have made that the 1930s were in their own way a golden age in the schools. The retired teachers remember the difficult times, but also their love of teaching and the difference they made in the classrooms. Their energy, intiative, and drive will help inspire teachers today, who face the serious problems of drugs, teenage pregnancy, and violence in the classrooms.Markowitz, Ruth J. is the author of 'My Daughter, the Teacher Jewish Teachers in the New York City Schools' with ISBN 9780813519753 and ISBN 0813519756.
