Goodwin G. Weinberg ’29

Body

Goodwin died Oct. 22, 1997. He never gave us much information about his life, but his father, an immigrant from the Ukraine, was famous as cofounder and publisher of the Yiddish New York newspaper The Day. His own literary and scholarly interests were shown by his international status as a collector of Aldous Huxley materials, and his active membership in the Friends of the Princeton Library. He gave his collection to Princeton.

In 1940 he married Inez Darby. She and their son Peter are the survivors. The class extends sincere sympathy to Goodwin's family.
