Bronson

By SAM STEINGLASS
To most Americans he is the
superstar, and a living legend.
Away from the bigger-than-life
screen, however, is a man we all
seem to know. Like a dear friend.
Like a brother. Like a fellow Jew.
Like a fellow human being.
Like many of us, he came to
America from "the old country"
—from Europe—and he sank his
roots deep into the heart and soul
and soil of America.
He breathed its air of freedom
—deeply, so that it filled his lungs
and his brain. He beheld its end-
less horizons of hope and oppor-
tunity beckoning him onward—
challenging him—blinding him with
its sunshine—urging him to earn
the prize, the reward, the Ameri-
can dream.
In his chosen profession, he

1



has wrestled with words—even

as Jacob wrestled with the angel.

He has wrestled with words—to
give them life—to give them
truth—to give them the maxi-
mum meaning. He has never
short-changed an author. He has
given back more, but never less,
than he has received.

He will never admit, however,
that he has fully repaid his debt
to America. This is his personal
installment plan—to repay Ameri-
ca for all it offered him in the
way of opportunity and freedom—
and no matter how much he tries,
he can't seem to catch up on his
payments.
He seeks no free ride on the
gravy train of fame. He prefers
to walk with the rest of us on
the hard road of reality. Wise,

understanding and aware, he does
not engage in the stylish sophistry
who is a Jew and what is a Jew.
Instead, he goes directly to the
heart of the matter, which is the
importance of being a Jew, the im-
portance of remembering one's her-
itage, the importance of living up
to the responsibilities of a Jew.

He feels it a special respon-
sibility to live in this time,
in this generation which destiny
has chosen to witness the re-
birth of Israel. Twenty-seven
years ago, he stood in Madison
Square Garden as the narrator
for a mass memorial to the Jews
who lost their lives during the
Nazi reaime—and he declared,
"We will never die!"
