Carl Djerassi worked with George Rosenkranz, a famous bridge player

Robin Lent, added Film directors and producers but again, it's somewhat problematic since many directors these days are also actors and vice versa.

Robin Lent,

Samuel Goldwyn has already been added to the project.

Can you locate the Warner Brothers (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warner_Bros for more info) here on Geni?

I looked on the profile under related projects..did not see Notable American Jews

Robin,

I may have forgotten to add the project to his profile, but I have now done that.

I think I have added all but one who was clearly Canadian (and Kevin added him to Notable Canadian Jews) and Louis I. Kahn.

I have not been also adding them to the lists, for which I apologize. I am juggling a lot of other things on Geni and outside of Geni.

This is an excellent project and has a lot of potential to draw people of all ages to learn something and to enjoy their time on Geni. Kudos to you all.

I have a huge list to add to the Notable Canadian Jews.

Rudolph Arthur Marcus has been added to the project as he has American Citizenship.

was Sammy Davis, Jr.
Jewish?

My recollection was that Sammy Davis Jr. was a convert to Judaism, you could easily find out online. If so, we should add him.

From wikipedia.org, he was Jewish. So add him in.

I will be adding in at some point, David Frum. He was George W. Bush's speach writer and is a Canadian American Jew.

Okay, added all the public ones. I have not addressed Walter Matthau's profile needing work.

Could someone please tell me the title of the project ?

Also, as an aside, where do we add a Jewish Olympic bridge player ?
I

Pam Karp,

Notable American Jews.

Post the person in question.

Also if you find a Canadian-American or someone that had Canadian citizenship and gave it up to become an American citizen, post it here with the profile. This way, I can add it to my project Notable Canadian Jews.

Kevin, thank you for your response.

Previous post deleted as it was erroneously sent midstream.

My person does not qualify for either specifically American or Canadian projects.

She was a Jewish ex South African so will be placed an appropriate project of that country.

Good luck with your project, if I come across any Notable Canadians, will let you know.

Thanks Robin!

Nirman Mailer (now deceased) was a first cousin of my husband Barry Karp. Normans father and Barry's mother were sisters.

I can't add Ruth Handler unless her manager collaborates with me or her manager can join the project and add the profile herself. I have written her to that effect.

Okay, I'm adding them but I came to Elvis Aaron Presley and I cannot believe that he was Jewish. Who was his Jewish parent and where is it discussed???

I added Harold Brodkey, my first cousin once removed.

Wow would my mother be jealous Pam Karp. She loves Norman Mailer.

And I've added all of Robin's latest bunch except three -- the private one, Ruth Handler, and Elvis.
