The Jewish Historical Society of Greater Hartford is currently working on a scholarly journal detailing the history of Jewish lawyers and law firms in the community.

It will document the last 100+ years of legal history and acknowledge the significant contributions of individuals and firms through these decades. The book will also feature oral history interviews and personal recollections of lawyers and judges from the area.

The Society would like to include the memories, anecdotes or professional experiences of as many attorneys as possible. Those interested in contributing a short essay should contact the Society at (860) 727-6170 or bbrodie@jewishhartford.org, or visit the Society’s website at jhsgh.org. Deadline for submission of essays is Jan. 31. The Society will launch this unique volume at a special program paying tribute to the Greater Hartford legal community on May 14 at the Tumblebrook Country Club.
