With Naomi Seidman, looking at Bais Yaakov yearbooks
Bais Yaakov, the revolutionary Orthodox girls' school system that began in Poland, has its American origins in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Its iconic early seminary on South 8th Street is now an artists co-op as well as a historic landmark. In this conversation, Naomi Seidman walks me through two old girls' yearbooks from this school. I had a great time and learned a lot.
Naomi is the author of the wonderful book Sarah Schenirer and the Bais Yaakov movement. Amazon link here:

Naomi's study of the Bais Yaakov history is available on this beautiful website: https://thebaisyaakovproject.religion.utoronto.ca/
I hope to share more on the history of Bais Yaakov of Brooklyn in the future. Make sure to follow my blog and subscribe to my channel.
