  • "Henrietta Szold, 1860-1945: Zionist Leader." Notable Maryland Women
    360 NOTABLE MARYLAND WOMPV HENRIETTA SZOLD, 1860-1945 Zionist Leader ELAINE G. BRESLAW Henrietta Szold, according to Francis Beirne, is "the best-known Jew of Baltimore birth throughout the world at large." Although her major con- tributions to Jewish life as a Zionist were made after she left Maryland, she had her roots in Baltimore City and began her first public activities in Mary- land. The oldest of eight daughters born to Rabbi Benjamin Szold and Sophie Schaar Szold, Henrietta received the education and religious training tradi- tionally accorded only Jewish sons. Although denied a college education be- cause of her sex, that early and unusual scholarly training provided the necessary intellectual discipline to sustain her work as writer, scholar, teacher, administrator and humanitarian. At the time of Henrietta's birth, December 24,1860, the Szold family lived on Eutaw Street, her father serving as Rabbi of the (Reformed) Oheb Shalom Temple on Hanover Street. Both parents were born in the Austrian empire and had come to the United States as a young married couple at the invita- tion of the recently established Oheb Shalom Congregation. They began life in the New World not as refugees, which was more typical of Jewish immi- grants, but as respected and respectable members of Baltimore's German- Jewish community. Henrietta graduated from Western High School in 1877, first in her class with an average of 99, the only Jewish girl in that public school. She was invited to teach there in 1878 as a temporary substitute, and subsequently found a regular job in Misses Adams's School for Girls teaching everything from algebra and geometry to German, French literature, botany and physiology.

  • Kayla Cohen Essay Henrietta Szold
    Henrietta Szold: Activist, Zionist, Humanist By Kayla Cohen ‘17 April wind passed us by like the smoke of men’s extinguished hookah pipes or the steam of goldenly-charred tea leaves in hot water. We were on the rooftop of a crumbling building. Our vantage point revealed the Judean hills-- rolling, rolling-- that separated the shiny buildings and white stone of our Jewish boarding school from the beaten rugs and dried soccer fields of surrounding Arab villages. Looking down, through a Jewish-American lens, I saw a conflict, a stark separation between Jewish and Arab communities. More than a century ago, activist and founder of Hadassah Henrietta Szold, through her own Jewish-American lens, saw a conflict older than the green line or Partition Plan of 1948. She did not see a conflict between ideologies, but the conflict that transcended them: poverty. Szold left New York to visit Palestine for the first time in 1909. In a horse-drawn carriage, she traveled to the blue Galilee and its struggling farm communities. Jerusalem, she knew, would reveal its strong connections with individual peoples: for Christians: the Holy Sepulchre, Jews: the Kotel, Muslims: the Qubbar Al Sakhrah. But outside of the Holy City, the communities of the three Abrahamic faiths, each lacking basic sanitation and plagued by disease, revealed a deeply common struggle. Upon her return to America, Szold’s Zionism was recharged. She formed Hadassah, and a more humanistic form of Zionism was born. Szold identified global injustice as the enemy and saw practical social programs benefitting all human beings as the means to combat such injustice.
