Show passes for opera. Most of the people working there were not too interested in that kind of music. I always was. So I'd be glad to get passes and Esther, one day said, in effect, she's got this cousin who's job hunting and were there any jobs down here. We said no we had an intern system if she wanted to come down and work for nothing. Maybe in the public ~elations department. Fine. So Marjorie came down and she went to work for me and a chap named Eddie Goldberg. We were jointly in the public relations department, continuity department. There were another one or two of us, news department and what we would do with poor Marjorie, who knew very little about the city geography, we'd use her as a kind of a errand boy. At first. I particularly remember there was a newspaper by then called PM. PM was printed in Brooklyn. Its offices were in Brooklyn. We'd send Marjorie over there with a press release and she'd get lost on the subway. She had very little experience in finding her way around Manhattan. But gradually we're teaching Marjorie to write press releases or something and what have you. And there's a girl, a pretty girl, at the office and you had a date so pretty soon, using Esther's passes to go to whatever. Pretty soon we got engaged. I guess we were engaged in 1940ish. In '41 I guess we were engaged. We got married just after the war began. In the spring of 1942. Now, you had to, in those days, it seemed proper, at least to Marjorie's family, you had to be married in |
