Susan Stern – 1937

 

A story from PJ:

Sue was a teacher.  When we were young, she taught remedial reading in Bed-Stuy.  When I had a fever, instead of sending me to school, she took me with her to class.

In her later years, she taught ESL (English as a Second Language.) 

I once remarked that all her students must be learning to speak English with a New York accent.  

She laughed.
