Publisher's Synopsis

Jacob Adler with his performances in the Yiddish ÊKing LearÊ ÊUriel AcostaÊ and Shylock in ÊThe Merchant of VeniceÊ became first a megastar of the exploding Yiddish theatre and then all of Broadway. His memoirs originally written and published in Yiddish and now translated (by his granddaughter) into English provides not only a compelling portrait of one of America's greatest actors but a fascinating social history of his time.
