My husband, Bill Baird was born in East New York and lived at 94 Williams Avenue. He went on to be the holder of 3 U.S. Supreme Court victories including Baird v. Eisenstadt which legalized birth control for every American in this nation. Part of the reason he fought so hard to do so was due to his poverty as a child and his 12-year old sister Louise dying due to poor medical care. Great people came out of Brooklyn! Thank you for helping to preserve that history. |

He and his friend joined a table at which I was seated with some company. This is the Reader’s Digest treatment of what ensued but it was the total six-degree bit; first name intros were made all around…pockets of conversations started…I overheard the term “photo archivist”…two and two clicked in my mind…I asked if his last name was Merlis and VIOLA! Of course, talk quickly turned to your book collaborations and this site. My point in posting is that he had some very flattering and complimentary things to say about you, your intellect, your work on the books and of course this site. I thought you and this forum ought to know. |
