Impressive Volume Memorializes
Rabbi Brickner's Many Services
An impressive memorial to
Dr. Barnett R. Brickner, one
of American Jewry's most dis-
tinguished spiritual leaders, has
just been issued by the Barnett
R. Brickner Memorial Founda-
tion, 23737 Fairmount, Cleve-
land 21, under the title "Por-
trait of a Rabbi."
Written by Rabbi Samuel M.
Silver, who was an associate of
Rabbi Brickner in Cleveland
for seven years, at Anshe
in the Herzl Club which counted
among its members such dis-
tinguished leaders as Dr. Abba
Hillel Silver, Dr. Emanuel Neu-
mann and others who had risen
to great lengths in Jewish life,
were the beginnings of his
training which resulted in his
gaining the esteem not only of
American Jewry but also of
communities in other lands. As
rabbi in Toronto, where he held
the first pulpit, he already be-
came widely known as an ora-
tor, as a Jewish leader, as an
indefatigable worker for Jewish
causes.
He was a student of Dr.
Samson Benderly and was one
of the first "Benderly boys,"
as the group that was trained
by the eminent scholar be-
came known. He was asso-
ciated with the late A. H..
Friedland in educWonal work
in Cleveland, and he made
Jewish learning one of his
chief concerns in a rich and
active life.
Dr. Brickner's Zionist activ-
ities were major in his busy
schedule. His contributions to
the good will movement, as a
leader in the National Confer-
ence of Christians and Jews;
his work abroad among the
armed forces and his efforts in
behalf of relief movements dis-
tinguished him among Jewish
leaders.
Rabbi Silver's story is all-
inclusive. The reader learns
about the leadership qualities
of Mrs. Brickner, about their
children's devotions to Jewry
and their great respect for their
personal heritage, and about Dr.
Brickner's readiness to defend
the name of the Jew on all
occasions.
Rabbi Brickner "had about
him the touch of the .prophet,"
Rabbi Silver summarizes his
tribute. He has succeeded in
properly evaluating one of
American Jewry's most dis-
tinguished leaders in our and
the last generation.
