454 Founder and President of Dr. Bloom Dentist, Inc. At one time there were seven offices functioning . One was in Brooklyn and the rest were scattered throughout New York City. Practiced from l9l4 - l984
Attended: Townsend Harris High School College of the City of New York - l907 - l9l0 New York College of Dentistry ( N.Y.U.) - l9ll - l9l4 - D.D.S.

J. Johnson Avenue, - Riverdale, NY l39 West Englewood Avenue - Teaneck, NJ - l963 230 East 79 Street - NYC - Moved here within the year after Mom died, which was in l963. He had lived with us for several months and then in an apartment hotel, before moving to 79 St. That was his last address, although his last days were here and in the Englewood Hospital
Somewhere in my memorabelia about Daddy, you will see a photo of the Opportunity Shop. He had the idea long before John's Bargain Stores. He would go to Auction Sales of failing businesses and buy up "job lots" of almost anything and then sell them at deeply discounted prices.
Apparently, he tried several endeavors. Way back, when he lived in Norwood, and possibly as something for Mom to do, he apparently had a small hotel or Bed and Breakfast enterprise. There is also - and actually this should come under the heading for Dan - but I may never have such a heading and so - I'll stick it in here - The Harrington Shop. Not sure where the name came from. That might have been Dan's contribution, but I wouldn't swear to it. Dan decided to give up Dentistry - I think the competition with Dr. Bloom Dentist was too much for him - and he thought it would be nice or it was always his ambition or something - to have a gift shop. I don't know whether he had actual blue print plans for this but it was to be something nice. Dad went buying with him - of course he couldnt do this alone and before long, he was more involved in the shop than Dan. The shop was located on Fifth Avenue and really had beautiful items. It only lasted a year or two and when it closed we all purchased items - at cost. Believe I still have a Bud Vase and a shot glass (just can think of the name right now) from the shop. One of these days I'm going to put in order all the information I have relating to Dr. Bloom Dentist, Inc. Perhaps when I hear from the people who are looking for photos of "Old New York" similar to the one I found in the Essex House. showing the 46 Street office. I may title the book "The Last Employee of Dr. Bloom Dentist" I did work at the 86 Street office for two years right after we were married Carl still had two more years of Residency at H.J.D. and I needed practice in handling patients since I expected to be working in a Professional Office in the future.
Time has a way of dulling the memory. I think Dan went back into the Dental business after the Harrington Shop. He also worked at 86 St. That didn't last too long. Conflict of personalities, I believe, would be the best way to describe it. Shortly after that he left home to make his way elsewhere. (digressing again) Dad finally closed all of the offices. Gave up the Corporation and went into Private Practice on 73 Street in a Professional Building. He was there for four or five years, I believe and finally gave up in l984. Quite a record, I'd say. l9l4 - l984 - 70 years ! He was still full of life after he retired. It was only about the last year and a half that he began to fail. Up until then he had seen every Play on B'way - every Art Show opening in the Museums and never alone. He almost always had a lady friend to accompany him.
He developed a circulatory condition in his leg and also had a heart attack towards the end. It was the leg that finally "did him in" Hospitalized in the Englewood Hospital, first they amputated a toe and finally went in to see if they could do something about his circulatory condition. It was impossible and they had to amputate just below the knee. He was fine for the first couple of days, but then developed a respiratory problem. Moved to the I. C. U., where he arrested twice. Brought back both times and he was lucid all through. I think the thing that finally happened was that it was all too much for his 94 years and like the "One Horse Shay" just collapsed all at once.

on 1930 census, living at 115 West 73rd Street, they had a live in maid (Maria Schmidt) 
Bloom, David (I26)
 
455 Founding member of the American Society of Cinematographers. From www.theasc.com:

“Phil Rosen was the first ASC member to give up his backward cap for a director’s chair. Born on May 8, 1888, in Russia and raised in Machias, Maine, Rosen worked as a projectionist and lab technician before becoming an $18-a-week cinematographer in 1912. He later worked at Fox and shot several of Theda Bara’s pictures. Rosen came to California in 1918 to photograph George Loane Tucker’s The Miracle Man (Mayflower-Paramount, 1919). The success of the film brought Rosen an offer to direct from Universal, and over the next 30 years he helmed some 140 films. He directed Rudolph Valentino in The Young Rajah (1922), and one of the most acclaimed films of the silent era, The Dramatic Life of Abraham Lincoln (1924), but more often than not, he was a director of efficient, low-budget quickies.

Rosen was also active in the formation of the Screen Directors’ Guild in 1936 and served on the board and as treasurer through 1941. He died of a heart attack on October 22, 1951.”



“Phil inherited his Rogozinsky blood thru his mother Alice nee Elke Rogozinsky -- JJacob must have married Alice in Olinka where Phil was born or nearby  -- they clearly could not have been related although we have no other info on JJacob. .According to Iwona, Alice is an English equivalent for Elke.
 
The Mother's maiden name "Rosovsky" on the 1936 SS Applications does not bother me -- close enough. Effie and Ethel were living together and entered the same name.
Did you know that my father never once mentioned the name Rogozinsky in his lifetime?
 
 Phil could do no better and entered  "Alice Rosen". You can ignore his numerous biographies stating born in Malbork, formerly Marienburg, East Prussia. City of Malbork has removed it from their list years ago. Probably invented by his studio who preferred a city beyond the Pale.” - Lester Rosen, 5/23/2016

458 From Carol Baird

“[Marianne Rothschild] married a second time after she was widowed from Jacob at 37 yrs. old., possibly to Isaac Gruenebaum (maybe the same person who m. Madchen Rothschild). AKA Malchen. Hugo Davidson wrote her name as "Amalie" on our family tree, but no Amalie is found in the Schluechtern records. At one point she was Jakob's niece and then became his wife.” 
UNNAMED (I4460)
 
459 From Carol Baird:
“Jakob - He was first married to Hindel Rothschild, had a daughter and 2 stillborn twins, and was widowed by her. A year after her death he married Hindel's niece, Marianne Rothschild and he sired 3 more children from the time he married at 66 yrs. old! According to his death record, he died of old age after becoming bedridden for 4 weeks; certificate signed by his mother-in-law, Marianne (Bornlaender) Rothschild, probably because his wife, Marianne was at home with their 10 mo. old baby, Berthe. Death cert. from Burghaun Archives, Hessen.”

479 Grandma was the first in the long line of Blooms to have poor eyesight. I believe they all suffered from cataracts. Grandma had a cataract removal operation late in life. This was performed by the same physician who operated on the King of Siam. How well I can recall sometime shortly after the operation, while at a party, she was offered a tray of hors d'oeuvres. She went right to the tooth pick and picked it up. Strange what remains in the mind of a child. Ponemonsky, Dora (I32)
 
480 Grandpa was apparently a well read Hebrew scholar. He was sought out, as I remember hearing, to read certain passages of the Torah on the holidays during the services. One should read his autobiography to fully picture his training and to understand how he got this knowledge.
During the years that his family was growing, he tried many businesses, as I recall hearing. The main business, for which he had the most background, was a Delicatessen Store. The family almost always lived in the back of the store and, I presume, the store helped to feed the family. As they grew old enough, the kids performed tasks, such as delivering the rolls, sell the milk, wait on customers etc.

Served in the Russian Army as a Flecher (paramedic) in the 101st Regiment (Permsky Infantry) of the 26th division, stationed in Grodno in 1882, discharged around 1885.

Philadelphia, 10 Nov- Alexander Hexter, senior member of the firm of Hexter & Brothers, clothing manufacturers, 432 Market St, met death in a horrible manner this afternoon. At 2:45 o'clock the unfortunate man, who had been working on the first floor, started to go to the fourth floor on the eleveator, which was partley loaded with a lot of unfinished clothing. while the eleveator was passing from the second to the third floor, he stooped over to speak to an emloyee and before he could escape, his head was caught between the elevator and the ceiling. Complete decapitation followed. The firm of Hexter and Brothers was composed of Alexander & his brother Samuel. Alexander was the senior member. He was married and resided at 1,813 North Broad Street.,
