Bowers on April 17, 1995, at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey with Kurt Piehler Richard Fuhler: And Richard Fuhler. KP: I guess I would like to begin by asking you a bit about your parents. Your father was born in Brooklyn Warren Bowers: Yes, that’s right. KP: but at one point moved to Jersey City. WB: Right. KP: When did he move to Jersey City? WB: Let’s see. It must have been about 1919, 1920. He was in the First World War. His folks lived in Brooklyn, so he came back and then moved to Jersey City. I don’t know why he did, really. I know he applied for a job as a policeman in Jersey City. I don’t know whether it was at that time or later. But he ended up in Jersey City, and that’s where he met my mother. That’s what brought him there, I think. KP: But he didn’t get the job at the police force? WB: I don’t know whether he got it then, or later, but he did work for the police department in Jersey City. KP: How long did he stay with the police department? WB: I don't know.
