photographed by Nannette Bedway in 2007 at the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel School of Applied Social Sciences at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. The photoshoot was planned when Mort requested to his longtime assistant, JoAnn White, that Bedway photograph him with his brothers, after he saw an exhibit of Bedway’s. Bedway said in an email the brothers arrived for the photoshoot looking “dapper.” While taking the photos, she noticed “their close interaction and loving ways,” and suggested they remove their jackets to take a more informal, less posed photo. Mort “could not believe that I would ask such a thing,” Bedway said. However, the photo captured just what Mort had hoped – the smiles, love and respect between the brothers. “I was truly honored to have been asked to show this friendship,” Bedway told SOURCE.

PUBLISHER’S NOTE

On the rich vitality of Jewish Cleveland

he Northeast Ohio Jewish community has long been an epicenter of giving, change making and coming together. Two incomparable examples of such, Mort Mandel and Sam Miller, sadly passed away this year. In remembering those two community pillars, we become inspired by their contributions to the history of our people, in our region and even beyond – as well as what one person can accomplish in their lifetime. Mandel, along with his late brothers, Jack and Joseph – who are all featured on our SOURCE cover – leave a legacy of philanthropy, programming and entrepreneurship widely, and speciﬁcally at Cleveland cultural, health care, educational and Jewish institutions. Miller was a champion of Jewish causes, a titan of industry and an ardent supporter of Cleveland, who was revered worldwide by religious, business and government leaders for his civic leadership, generosity and kindness. There are too many stories of change making on the part of those two individuals to explain here, so I encourage you to check out the Cleveland Jewish News’ full coverage of their legacies at cjn.org/mort and cjn.org/sam_miller. While such philanthropists and visionaries are no doubt a major factor in the success of local Jewish and secular institutions, vibrant and innovative agencies are responsible for putting intention and funding into action. One such example is the Jewish Federation of Cleveland, which this year set a fundraising record, bringing in more than $33 million in its 2020 Campaign for Jewish Needs. With those community donations, the Federation will provide for a wide range of Jewish needs in the coming year. It’s also important to think about the future. Soon a new decade – and with it a new generation of Jewish leadership and giving – will be upon us. To ensure you remain connected with those Jewish and secular organizations doing good and providing services in our community, SOURCE functions as a directory – a resource to look to when you realize you need something, or perhaps want to give somewhere, but aren’t sure where. In that sense, we print SOURCE annually to help do our part to contribute to that rich vitality of Jewish Cleveland – with the intention that our readers are never at a loss for where to ﬁnd a worthwhile, established organization or company to meet the needs of others and themselves. We also hope seeing the good work of the organizations included here may inspire you to perform your own acts of tikkun olam.

In this issue, you will also ﬁnd proﬁles of the 2019 class of the Cleveland Jewish News’ 18 Difference Makers. Those individuals – much like Sam Miller and the Mandel family – contribute their time, talent and treasure to our community in immeasurable ways. We are grateful to celebrate their acts of kindness in as many ways as possible. As such, this season I encourage you to remember the change makers of Jewish Cleveland’s past and how they’ve paved the way for each of us today. I also hope you will look to those leaders of today and into the next decade. And in recognizing the ever changing, yet persistent unmet needs that remain, you are inspired to lend yourself to change making endeavors. May we all go from strength to strength!

2020 HOLIDAYS

JEWISH HOLIDAYS and noteworthy dates TU B’SHEVAT

Sunday, Feb. 9 (begins at sunset) Monday, Feb. 10 (ends at nightfall) Tu b’Shevat, the 15th of Shevat on the Jewish calendar, is the day that marks the beginning of a “new year” for trees. This is the season in which the earliest-blooming trees in the Land of Israel emerge from their winter sleep and begin a new fruit-bearing cycle. We mark the day of Tu b’Shevat by eating fruit, particularly the kinds singled out by the Torah in its praise of the bounty of the Holy Land: grapes, figs, pomegranates, olives and dates. On this day, we remember that “man is a tree of the field” (Deuteronomy 20:19) and reflect on the lessons we can derive from our botanical analogue.

PURIM

Monday, March 9 (begins at sunset) Tuesday, March 10 (ends at nightfall) The jolly festival of Purim is celebrated every year on the 14th of the Hebrew month of Adar (late winter/early spring). It commemorates the salvation of the Jewish people in ancient Persia from Haman’s plot “to destroy, kill and annihilate all the Jews, young and old, infants and women, in a single day,” as recorded in the Megillah (book of Esther).

PASSOVER

Wednesday, April 8 (begins at sunset) Thursday, April 16 (ends at nightfall) The eight-day festival of Passover is celebrated in the early spring, from the 15th through the 22nd of the Hebrew month of Nissan. It commemorates the emancipation of the Israelites from slavery in ancient Egypt. By following the rituals of Passover, we have the ability to relive and experience the true freedom that our ancestors gained.

YOM HASHOAH

YOM HAZIKARON

Monday, April 20 (begins at sunset) Tuesday, April 21 (ends at nightfall) Holocaust Remembrance Day

Monday, April 27 (begins at sunset) Tuesday, April 28 (ends at nightfall) Israeli Memorial Day

YOM HA’ATZMAUT

Tuesday, April 28 (begins at sunset) Wednesday, April 29 (ends at nightfall) Israeli Independence Day

SHAVUOT

Thursday, May 28 (begins at sunset) Saturday, May 30 (ends at nightfall) Shavuot coincides with the date that God gave the Torah to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai more than 3,300 years ago. It comes after 49 days of eager counting, as we prepared ourselves for this special day. It is celebrated by lighting candles, staying up all night to learn Torah, hearing the reading of the Ten Commandments in synagogue, feasting on dairy foods and more.

12 SOURCE 2020

2020 HOLIDAYS TISHA B’AV

Wednesday, July 29 (begins at sunset) Thursday, July 30 (ends at nightfall) The Three Weeks is an annual mourning period that falls in the summer during which we do not cut our hair, purchase new clothes, listen to music or hold weddings. It reaches its climax and concludes with the fast of the ninth of Av, the date when both Holy Temples were set aflame. This is the saddest day of the Jewish calendar, and it is also the date that many other tragedies befell our people. The fast of Tisha b’Av begins at sunset the previous evening. Besides fasting, we abstain from additional pleasures: washing, applying lotions or creams, wearing leather shoes and marital relations. Until midday, we sit on the floor or on low stools.

ROSH HASHANAH

Friday, Sept. 18 (begins at sunset) Sunday, Sept. 20 (ends at nightfall) Rosh Hashanah is the birthday of the universe, the day G‑d created Adam and Eve, and it’s celebrated as the head of the Jewish year. It’s celebrated with candle lighting in the evenings, festive meals with sweet delicacies during the night and day, prayer services that include the sounding of the ram’s horn (shofar) on both mornings and desisting from creative work.

YOM KIPPUR

Sunday, Sept. 27 (begins at sunset) Monday, Sept. 28 (ends at nightfall) Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year – the day on which we are closest to God and to the quintessence of our own souls. It is the Day of Atonement – “For on this day He will forgive you, to purify you, that you be cleansed from all your sins before God” (Leviticus 16:30). For nearly 26 hours – from several minutes before sunset on 9 Tishrei to after nightfall on 10 Tishrei – we “afflict our souls,” or abstain from food and drink, do not wash or anoint our bodies, do not wear leather footwear and abstain from marital relations.

SUKKOT

Friday, Oct. 2 (begins at sunset) Friday, Oct. 9 (ends at nightfall) For 40 years, as our ancestors traversed the Sinai Desert, following the Exodus from Egypt, miraculous “clouds of glory” surrounded and hovered over them, shielding them from the dangers and discomforts of the desert. Ever since, we remember God’s kindness and reaffirm our trust in His providence by dwelling in a sukkah – a hut of temporary construction with a roof covering of branches – for the duration of the Sukkot festival (on the Jewish calendar Tishrei 15-21). For seven days and nights, we eat all our meals in the sukkah and otherwise regard it as our home.

SIMCHAT TORAH

Saturday, Oct. 10 (begins at sunset) Sunday, Oct. 11 (ends at nightfall) The holiday of Sukkot is followed by an independent holiday called Shemini Atzeret. In Israel, this is a one-day holiday; in the Diaspora, it is a two-day holiday, and the second day is known as Simchat Torah. This holiday is characterized by utterly unbridled joy, which surpasses even the joy of Sukkot. The joy reaches its climax on Simchat Torah, when we celebrate the conclusion – and restart – of the annual Torah-reading cycle.

CHANUKAH

Thursday, Dec. 10 (begins at sunset) Friday, Dec. 18 (ends at nightfall) Chanukah is the Jewish eight-day, wintertime “festival of lights,” celebrated with a nightly menorah lighting, special prayers and fried foods. At the heart of the festival is the nightly menorah lighting. The menorah holds nine flames, one of which is the shamash (“attendant”), which is used to kindle the other eight lights. On the first night, we light just one flame. On the second night, an additional flame is lit. By the eighth night of Chanukah, all eight lights are kindled. Special blessings are recited, often to a traditional melody, before the menorah is lit, and traditional songs are sung afterward.

Creating Well Being by Laura Mineff, Designer/Contractor Array Design Studio

ver the last 10 years, the way we live and entertain in our homes has changed dramatically. The kitchen was hidden away in a separate room not to be seen by the guests. Formal dining rooms were only used for special occasions. Houses had structured layouts with no open flow. The style today is open and airy, creating an opportunity for guests to be involved in the dining, cooking or gathering experience. This new setting offers engaged conversation while sitting at a beautiful island right in the middle of the kitchen. The same beautiful concrete or stainless steel island also doubles as a kitchen table for the family with plenty of storage underneath. The island will have additional functionality to include the easy option of a second sink, dishwasher or cook range in the kitchen to free up space for better flow when there are several people cooking. Many people who enjoy watching the TV programs on design and renovation have been influenced to think that they need a demolition crew to make changes that will give their space a wonderful, updated look. It really doesn’t take a village to make changes that will be more conducive to your lifestyle and any challenges you may be having in reaching and bending to use the microwave or load the dishwasher. My design team takes into account modifications to keep you in your home, to enhance your life experience and to bring happiness to your environment. New concepts may mean changes as lowering the microwave for easier reach. (It doesn’t have to be positioned above your head.) Dishwashers can be raised for less bending. Upper closed cabinets are replaced with open design cabinets that are easy to see and to reach. Wish you could easily have your morning coffee or latte in your master suite without leaving your room? If that makes you happy, why not have an attractive alcove that is beautifully integrated into your bedroom living area with a small inconspicuous refrigerator

to store cream and butter and an automatic barista machine that you fill with water the night before? While you are adding the touches you always imagined, consider installing a heated towel bar in your en suite bathroom that has a luxurious power hand-held shower with several mounted jets to reach all those key body spots and temperature control internally so no scalding. Your newly designed etched-glass shower stall could have a corner bench where you can easily sit. The sleek grab bar provides safety and a nice design element to help you get up and down while you enjoy the steam/sauna element that is so wonderful for your skin and psyche. And for those who think that the expense of modifying your kitchen or bedroom is just a fanciful whim that won’t be valuable, think again. You never lose by updating your home because the changes will bring you enjoyment and the ability to remain in your home.

Welcome to Beachwood Commons – Leading the Way in Assisted Living

eachwood Commons Assisted Living, a privately owned company of LifeServices, is one of nine premier assisted living communities located throughout western Pennsylvania and the Greater Cleveland area. LifeServices was founded in 1995 by co-owners Mr. Scott D. Allen and Mr. Timothy W. Coughlin, who worked together to develop and construct each assisted living community. Today, they lead and manage all of LifeServices’ Communities on a day-to-day basis from their central office in Erie, Pa. “Our philosophy of service and care is embodied in the four simple words our residents have taught us are important, quality-of-life values to them: Independence, Privacy, Dignity and Choice,” said Mr. Coughlin. “Our residents have helped us understand that these four values are the foundation of their desire to not only remain in their own homes for as long as possible, but also signify what they seek from us when it’s time to join one of our Communities. Every member of each Care Team shares the passion of those four words in all the ways they assist our residents.” “The goal in all of our LifeServices Communities is not to ‘take care of old people,’ but rather to ‘help older people take care of themselves,’” said Mr. Coughlin. Beachwood Commons is ideally located in a quiet, Cleveland suburb close to where many seniors have always called home. This exceptional location provides easy access to shopping, restaurants and physicians’ offices. The Community features a selection of 76 private and spacious one-bedroom and deluxe studio apartment homes that promote each resident’s independence and privacy while also allowing them to age in place in their own homelike surroundings. Each apartment home features oversized windows for an abundance of natural light, a fully appointed kitchenette with custom wood cabinetry, a private bathroom

with walk-in shower and a state-of-the art personalized emergency response system. Chef-prepared meals offer appetizing, nutritional options each day in the lovely dining room, and all of the bright and cheery common areas provide easy opportunities for socializing. “Our staff understands that everyone wants to continue to live in their own home for as long as possible,” said Mr. Allen. “But when circumstances change and that decision is no longer safe or practical, we’re proud that families choose Beachwood Commons as their comfortable new home.” Whether residents choose to live independently or require more specialized attention, Beachwood Commons offers all the care that’s needed – but only the care that’s needed. An innovative new pricing alternative, FlexCare™, which is based on the specific amount of caregiving time each resident needs, means seniors pay only for the specific care they use. “We provide compassionate and dignified care in a warm and inviting apartment home that’s half the price of a semiprivate nursing home bed,” said Mr. Coughlin. “And less than 10 percent of our residents who join our Community ever end up in a nursing home.” Enjoy assisted living at its best – all from a caring, trained staff that feels like family. To learn more or to schedule a personal visit, call 216-295-1700 or visit LifeServicesAssistedLiving.com.

Now with we’re more affordable than ever! TM

W hen your loved one requires assistance with personal needs and medications, yet wants an

independent lifestyle, they’ll enjoy the caring atmosphere at any of our beautifully appointed Communities. And with , our new pricing program, they’ll only pay for the specific care they use. We provide just the right amount of care that’s needed – all from a trained and dedicated staff that feels like family. Call today for a personal visit!

Your Cleveland Starts Here®

he Cleveland History Center (CHC) is dedicated to connecting the community with the rich history of Northeast Ohio. The CHC continues to expand its Cleveland Starts Here® exhibit experience, sponsored by the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Foundation, so that visitors may be inspired to find their own voice in the ever-evolving story of Northeast Ohio. By exploring the tangible history of the region, and immersing themselves in the triumphs and tragedies that define Cleveland, visitors are encouraged to explore the role they play in the community. These stories of innovation, immigration, entrepreneurship, and diversity create a connection to the past that can help inform the present, and in turn help shape the future. History buffs, sports enthusiasts, parents, grandparents, students, educators and Cleveland lovers around the world experience the region’s collective stories when they visit the Cleveland History Center. Through the latest technologies and digital media, rarely seen images, films, art and historical artifacts, visitors are invited to celebrate historical legacies as well revel in the region’s promise and possibilities. Cleveland Starts Here® welcomes and encourages everyone to come together and make meaningful connections with the community and each other. In 2020, The Cleveland History Center will mark the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage and the 100th anniversary of the League of Women Voters of Greater Cleveland with a new permanent exhibit that continues to transform the guest experience. Presented by PNC and WRHS in collaboration with the League of Women Voters of Greater Cleveland, Women and Politics will trace the story of suffrage, exploring the early days of the suffragist movement, the successful fight for the 19th Amendment, the birth and growth of the League of Women Voters as a force for clean government and the election of northern Ohio women to positions of power. The experiences and contributions of women, African Americans, and immigrants will be a focus of the CHC and are the core messages of the exhibit. “Women and Politics will shed light on the pivotal, albeit sometimes forgotten role Northeast Ohio played in the fight for the 19th Amendment,” says Angie Lowrie, Director of the CHC. “This exhibit will uphold our mission to further shed light on the people, the stories, and the possibilities of our region.” The CHC is also home to the world-renowned Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum, which features historically significant automobiles, planes, boats, and other transportation artifacts. The exhibits within the Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum such as the current exhibit, Electric, Steam, or Gasoline: The Past, Present, and Future of Alternative Power, work in tandem to weave together the intricate story of Northeast Ohio’s crucial role in the development and continuing innovation of the transportation industry. In addition to Cleveland Starts Here® and the Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum, guests are encouraged to explore the other unforgettable features of the CHC. The Chisholm Halle Costume Wing, the Euclid Beach Park Grand Carousel, and not one but two historical mansions offer visitors yet another opportunity to find something brings the past to life.

Your Menorah Park

Our Story More than a century ago, a small group of community members saw the need for 24-hour care for its frailest aging adults. We continue their legacy and share their passion in the award-winning health care and residential organization that is the expanded Menorah Park of today. Menorah Park’s nonprofit mission is to provide caring residential options and quality health care services in a culture of innovation and excellence, guided by Jewish values and a commitment to help all adults to age empowered, inspired and fulfilled. At Menorah Park, age is defined as personal, not chronological. We recognize that every individual’s path to successful aging is unique, and we offer many choices in services, programs and opportunities that help them continue their own positive stories. Jane After living at Menorah Park’s independent residence R.H. Myers for a short while, Jane is finding humor — and fame — by writing and singing about the realities of the often less-thanattractive aspects of the aging process. Jane says that aging is about attitude. Keeping the “funny bone” in shape is as important as keeping the back straight. Jane continues to enjoy having lunch with friends, swimming and taking advantage of occupational therapy, yoga and exercise classes. These lifestyle choices keep Jane going strong through many of life’s setbacks. Neil and Bonnie Married more than 50 years, Neil and Bonnie find comfort in having Menorah Park’s Mandel Adult Day Center to help Bonnie keep her zest for life and independence even as she experiences memory loss. Bonnie continues to enjoy dance, theater, movies and the arts during her regular visits to the Center, where she is independent and empowered in a safe environment while Neil is at work. Memory loss can be scary and depressing, but the Center helps Bonnie and Neil continue their story of love and inspiration. Judi For many people, living pain-free is hard to imagine. Judi wanted to go to her grandson’s college graduation and was determined to do so without the aid of a wheelchair. After multiple knee surgeries and a leg surgery for a broken femur, she was still on the mend when she developed neck and back pain. Dry needling, one of the latest techniques for pain management offered by a certified specialist at Menorah Park’s Peter B. Lewis Aquatic & Therapy Center, made it possible for Judi to reach her goal. She sat comfortably for hours waiting for the moment, and then it came. She proudly watched him receive his diploma, and smiled with realization that she felt terrific and had no pain whatsoever. Elaine Elaine was concerned that the physical frailty that kept her from writing her name would impact her ability to make a difference. When she joined Menorah Park’s senior advocacy efforts, her signature on a letter about funding was a lipstick kiss that brought even more attention to the policy issue. Elaine often says her body may be limited, but she’s still a vibrant person and will not be defined by her challenges. Ryan Ryan finds hope since his partial paralysis through the strong bond of caring found with his Menorah Park home care nurse. Over

time, Ryan has miraculously regained slight sensations of touch, and sees that as a sign that he can – and will – walk again. These are just a few of the dozens of inspiring stories that take place every day when people engage with Menorah Park, thanks in large part to the support of donors who share in the passion to make lives better. It is in these experiences and more that Menorah Park’s values, five-star services and award-winning programs offer something for everyone. Menorah Park is more than a top choice in Northeast Ohio — and in the nation — for health and wellness services and residential living. It’s a resource offering sound solutions to improve lives, no matter the circumstances or challenges, with a focus on each individual’s preferences, values, motivations and even the fulfillment of dreams they thought would never come true. The Menorah Park of today will be different tomorrow, because it continues to evolve with new information, technologies and treatments, all in the service of helping individuals fulfill their goals and continue their personal stories of successful aging, however they define it.

DIFFERENCE MAKERS

›Milton and Tamar Maltz Lifetime Achievement Award

t 5 years old, Milton Maltz faced hate for the ﬁrst time – an experience that has been indelibly etched in his mind, even 85 years later. That incident, along with his ability to think outside the box and his capacity for taking chances helped him skyrocket a single small radio station into the formation of Malrite Communications Group, Inc., one of the largest owners of radio and television stations in the country. Such experiences have also been the impetus for him and his wife, Tamar, to become generous philanthropists to both Jewish and non-Jewish causes, including his temple, the arts, research, mental illness and more. For their efforts to make the world a better place, the Maltzes were honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award in the 2019 Class of the Cleveland Jewish News’ 18 Difference Makers on Nov. 24, 2019.

“One day in November, it was getting dark and they started pushing me around as I was walking home. ‘Play the fiddle, Miltie, play the fiddle for us.’ OK, I said, ‘I’ll play the fiddle. I put the violin case down on the sidewalk, opened it up. I took the violin like a baseball bat and I smashed Lenny Osborn right in the face. His glasses flew off his nose. They thought I was crazy, and they all left and ran away, and left me there with my broken violin in pieces.” Afraid to go home, he was sitting on a bench, when a police car rolled up. “Are you Milton Maltz?” the officer asked. “Your mother has been calling the station every 15 minutes. Get in the car, we’re taking you home.” When he got home, he said, “My mother didn’t know if she should kiss me or smack me. My mother could not afford to buy me another violin – so I took up the harmonica, instead.”

A HATEFUL EXPERIENCE

CAREER PATH CHANGE

At 90, Milton Maltz still arrives for work weekdays and puts in six or seven hours, including business trips to Washington, D.C., New York City and Jupiter, Fla. Sitting in his Beachwood office, which is adorned with mementos from his career, Maltz recounted in crystal clear detail his first encounter with hate as if it happened yesterday, while Tamar, also 90, looked on. “My dad (Louis Maltz) had a little store with a home attached to it in an all Polish-Catholic neighborhood,” he said. “We were the only Jewish family in that entire part of South Bend (Ind.). When it was time for me to go to kindergarten. Benjamin Harrison was the closest school, about 10 blocks away from us. There were no school buses so my mother took me and walked with me before classes began to show me the way to school and how to come back. “One day at recess, I was surrounded by a group of Catholic boys. And they started calling me names – kike, that kind of thing – and they started to pull on me and take off my clothes. I wound up having no shirt, no pants. I wrenched myself away and ran like crazy in shoes, socks and underwear. They called me ‘Christ killer.’ I remember telling my mother, who was horrified. I never killed anybody. They claimed that I’m a Christ killer! That was my first experience with hate and intolerance. It’s something you never forget having lived through that.” That incident was enough for Anna Maltz. The family moved to Chicago, where the Maltzes kept an Orthodox Jewish home. Milton entered the first grade, never having finished kindergarten. When he was 10 years old, some boys made fun of him because he played the violin. “For several weeks, four or five of the guys would gather around, laughing, ‘Play the fiddle for us, Miltie, play the fiddle.’ And I wouldn’t do it because they were all crazy kids, making fun and mocking the violin,” he said.

Maltz grew up thinking he wanted to be an architect, but in high school, those ambitions took a detour. A teacher asked him to read aloud a paragraph from “Moby Dick.” He did, and when the teacher asked him to stay after class, he thought he was in trouble. Instead, she told him a new radio station was looking for talent to participate in dramas on air – before television existed. “I told her, ‘I don’t think I want to do that,’” Maltz recalled. “You like being a hall monitor?” she asked him. “No, it’s boring,” he replied. “I’ll get you out of that,” she said. “And I’ll pay your car fare.” He auditioned, got the job and was offered more and

DIFFERENCE MAKERS more parts. When he was in college, his father thought that being a radio actor was not a solid career and was opposed to him being an on-air personality. However, that changed when Maltz wrote and directed, “The Fight for Freedom,” a series of radio programs that chronicled the struggle to create the nation of Israel. “Maybe it’s not such a bad career after all,” his father told him. “I would stay up at night until about 2 in the morning to write, sleep until about six or seven, and then I would ﬁnish the script I was working on and go to class,” Maltz said. He spent two years at Roosevelt College in Chicago, where he met Tamar. He eventually received a degree in journalism from the University of Illinois in Urbana, Ill. Tamar reminisced about how they met. “He was holding auditions for parts in a show that he had written,” she said. “I was one of the ones that went downtown to try out. I did not get the part.” After the audition, Milton Maltz said he could help her if she would stay longer. She did. He then asked her to dinner, and that was the beginning of what has turned into a 68-year marriage. Along the way, Tamar Maltz taught school in Michigan and Maryland, and was a Hebrew school teacher at Anshe Chesed Fairmount Temple in Beachwood.

THE BEGINNING OF AN EMPIRE Maltz served in the U.S. Naval Reserve and was called to active duty at the National Security Agency. He was based in Washington, D.C. and dealt with documents, including those that were top secret. The pay was not great, so he was a “GI daytime and DJ nighttime” in Washington, D.C. He moonlighted for John Kluge, a grocery store owner who had started his own broadcast company. His biggest radio advertiser was Arthur Murray Dance Studios and due to poor advertising results, he was afraid he would lose this client. Maltz saved the day. He did ad-lib spots, aimed toward women who worked for the government. “You work all day long for a federal government agency,” he recalled of the spot. “You come home at night. It’s dark, it’s quiet, you’re lonely. Here’s how to change that and ﬁnd the guy of your dreams. Here’s the phone number. It’s Arthur Murray … dance lessons.” As the phone began to ring, Maltz asked Kluge to give him $1 for every time someone called in to sign up for dance lessons. The ad spot was a success and they sold hundreds of dance lessons. Because of this, Kluge wanted Maltz to go to work for him once he left the Navy, but Maltz had other ideas – he wanted to own his own stations. Kluge went on to create media giant Metromedia, which owned radio and TV stations and other properties, eventually selling the company for $7 billion, Maltz said. Maltz then took a job as a program director at a station in Michigan, serving Jackson and Lansing, the state capital. Tamar Maltz was a schoolteacher at the time. There, Maltz had another experience with hate, this time directed not at himself but toward another minority group. Maltz had played on air, recordings by three black artists in

a row – “Satchmo (Louis Armstrong), Nat King Cole and Ella Fitzgerald.” The general manager of the station called him and told him to get them off the air, using a racial slur. Maltz, who was the top-rated disc jockey, took the record that was playing and smashed it – and thought he would be ﬁred. After his show, the director summoned him to his ofﬁce and asked why he played those records. “I said to myself, I can’t live like this,” Maltz recalled. “I’ve got to buy a station and run it myself.” Maltz then asked Robert G. Wright, the No. 1 salesman at the station, to join him in purchasing a small radio station in 1956 – the start of Malrite. The partners were together for about eight years until they went their separate ways. Maltz served as Malrite’s chairman and CEO until he sold the company in 1998.

TALES OF AN ENTREPRENEUR A few stories of brilliance define the success and the drive of Maltz and Malrite Communications. First, he predicted early on that FM was going to supplant AM as the radio powerhouse. Maltz and Wright – the namesakes of Malrite – bought a small station in Plymouth, Wis., about 15 miles from Sheboygan, Wis., for about $40,000, with $15,000 as a down payment. The money came from Tamar’s teaching job. “Why were the owners willing to sell?” Maltz asked. “They were all businessmen and didn’t have any idea how to run a radio station. So, we took the risk and bought it to see what we could do with it.” “I put a record on and offered a U.S. Savings Bond for anybody who came up with the name of the song. Not one phone call. I wound up putting on ‘G-d Bless America’ and not one phone call. Now I thought, I know why we own this radio station. Nobody listens to it.” That didn’t deter Maltz. He analyzed the market and realized that the station was in dairy country and that he needed to attract those listeners who had money. His came up with the idea to have a dairy farmer broadcast live on the air every morning from his kitchen to provide agricultural reports that came from the government. In exchange, every time a major advertiser bought a radio spot, that farmer would receive merchandise from the advertiser. The idea was an instant success. The second station Maltz bought was in Macomb County in Michigan, about 35 miles from Detroit. He changed the format to a then-relatively unknown talk-radio format. When a controversial statewide tax issue came up, his station was the only one broadcasting the debate live from the state capital for two days. That led the station to become the local news leader in the market. Maltz’s first TV station was an ABC affiliate in New Bern., N.C., which was the third-rated station in a three-station market. Some businessmen owned it and they were selling it for $2 million, which in those days was considered very cheap. “The station was a disaster,” Maltz said. “The news was bad, everything was bad.” The station’s tower was only 500 feet, half the size of the rival networks’ towers and when he asked to rent space on their cjn.org/source

DIFFERENCE MAKERS towers, they laughed. So Maltz had a tower built that was 2,000 feet, but he still needed to do something else to attract viewers. “I released the people doing the so-called news,” he said. “There wasn’t one woman on the air doing news so I hired an African-American woman on top of it. Half the TV market was black and there had never been a black person on the air doing news, let alone a woman. “I started getting phone calls. ‘Fire those people, or we’re going to burn your tower, or we’re going to tear it down.’ And you can imagine, I told them to go screw themselves. And I’ll never forget the day they said they’re going to tear it down.” Maltz called the police, but “they didn’t show up.” ABC had an idea to have people surround the tower to keep it from being damaged. It worked, and ABC became the No. 1 network in the market.

PROLIFIC PHILANTHROPISTS Kluge was responsible for the Maltzes coming to Cleveland, as Maltz had hoped to buy stations and settle in San Diego. In the early 1970s, Maltz ran into Kluge at a broadcasters’ convention and Kluge needed to sell a radio station due to Federal Communications Commission regulations. The station was WHK in Cleveland. Maltz bought that one and WMMS-FM, and turned the struggling stations into juggernauts. That’s when the Maltzes moved to Cleveland, the new home of Malrite Communications. Tamar Maltz was surprised at the time, but now calls the city, “my beloved Cleveland.” The Maltzes have been generous donors, mostly through the Maltz Family Foundation of the Jewish Federation of Cleveland and The Milton and Tamar Maltz Family Foundation. In the Cleveland area, beneficiaries of their generosity include The Temple-Tifereth Israel, Montefiore, The Cleveland Orchestra, Cleveland Museum of Art and Cleveland Play House. They have also given generously outside of Northeast Ohio to the Lieber Institute for Brain Development at John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Brain and Behavior Research Foundation in New York, U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., Israel Philharmonic and American Friends of The Israel Museum, to name a few. The Maltzes spearheaded the drive to renovate what was called “Silver’s Temple” in the University Circle neighborhood of Cleveland, transforming it into the sparkling new Milton and Tamar Maltz Performing Arts Center, which is now part of Case Western Reserve University. “I cannot imagine a more impactful set of difference makers than Milton and Tamar Maltz,” CWRU President Barbara Snyder said. “When we first went to them and I went in partnership with the then-senior rabbi of The Temple-Tifereth Israel, Rick Block, when we first approached them with the idea of turning the synagogue – which was only being used a few times a year at that point – into a performing arts center for our campus, they immediately embraced it.” With phase one, an extensive renovation, completed, the project is on to phase two. “We have a number of other donors who have stepped up to help with that, but it started with Milton and Tamar,” Snyder

said. “We are so excited about phase two because it includes something that both Milton and Tamar deeply committed to: a proscenium theater – the first real proscenium theater that has been on the campus of Case Western Reserve University.” In her praise, Snyder said “Getting to know them has been one of the privileges of being president of Case Western Reserve.”

LOVE FOR THE ARTS The Maltzes also created the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage in Beachwood, the International Spy Museum in Washington, D.C., and Maltz Jupiter Theatre in Jupiter, Fla., where the Maltzes have a home nearby. The Maltzes have left their mark on the arts and entertainment world. When The Cleveland Orchestra came looking for a donation, the Maltzes couldn’t resist. “People at The Cleveland Orchestra were having trouble getting young people to enjoy and like classical music,” Milton Maltz said. “They came to see me and asked for funds to help reduce their debt. They sat around the table and I asked, ‘How much do you want?’ They told me they were going to hit me for $10 million. “I told them, ‘I can’t do it. But I will tell you what I can do – $20 million, on one condition: When I sit in that box seat and look down at the audience, what do I see? Gray hair and no hair. Here’s what we’re going to do – we’re going to take that money and let young people come in for half the price and no price at Blossom (Music Center). And we’re going to wind up getting young people enjoying classical music and buying tickets eventually, as they get older.’ I will never forget it. They were stunned. For your information, today The Cleveland Orchestra is considered the No. 1 orchestra in America to bring in young people.” He also played an instrumental role in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame coming to Cleveland, instead of New York City. “The New York board members didn’t want it here,” he said. “We owned a station that was a rock station in New York and many of those guys on the board would come to me to have their talent played on our air. And I would say, ‘Look I can’t force you, but how are you going to vote for the home of the rock hall?’ That’s all it took.”

STOPPING HATE, LOVING ISRAEL Recalling the hate and anti-Semitism he encountered, Maltz realized something had to be done. So, 12 years ago, he and Tamar and the Maltz Museum launched the Stop the Hate essay contest for students in Northeast Ohio. It’s a way for students to express their feelings about hate and tolerance, and an opportunity to win money for college. The Maltzes have visited Israel several times and the country has a special place in their hearts. “It’s the last place Jews can stand up and be counted as equal to any other nation at the United Nations,” he said. “And it’s the opportunity for Jews to exercise their skills, their research, their caring, their loving.”

Today, as CEO of The City Club of Cleveland, he is using skills and knowledge learned across those positions to teach what free speech means and the right to exercise it. As a result of his accomplishments, Moulthrop received the Civic Leadership Award at the Cleveland Jewish News’ 18 Difference Makers event on Nov. 24, 2019. “I taught in county jail in San Francisco, my first teaching job,” said Moulthrop, whose maternal grandparents were Ukrainian Jewish immigrants. “I taught in county jail in different locations for a year. I was constantly trying to figure out where I can make a difference – not saying that because we’re talking about Difference Makers – but that’s literally what I was trying to do. Asking, ‘Where is the place where I can help people and make an intervention in somebody’s life? Or how can I help people actualize themselves? “Working in the jail, I was really driven by that. ... The folks I had been working with really hit kind of rock bottom. The question I started asking, ‘Is there a way you can be involved in somebody’s life earlier that they avoid this kind of rock bottom? What I came to understand about the population I was working with in the jail was that they mostly wanted to be good people, and mostly they were bad decision makers and mostly they were unlucky, mostly people of color.” That experience led him to become a high school English teacher in San Lorenzo, Calif., which is where he met his wife, Dorothy Russo, who was an English teacher before becoming department chair one year after he was hired. Moulthrop loved teaching, but said when he turned about 30 years old, he realized he couldn’t see himself teaching for decades. So, he pondered his future while reflecting on his past. He was editor of his high school newspaper, loved journalism and listening to public radio. He went to graduate school for journalism at the University of California, Berkeley and said he loved living in the Bay Area. After school however, he and Dorothy got married and moved to Cleveland, from where Dorothy hails. Her family owned Russo’s Stop-n-Shop grocery stores.

SHIFT TO NORTHEAST OHIO In 2005, Moulthrop was hired at ideastream as host of “Morning Edition” He thanked Dave Kanzeg, former director of programming at ideastream, and his colleague, Mark Smukler, who took a chance on the newcomer. In 2006, ideastream launched “The Sound of Ideas” and Moulthrop was its ﬁrst host. “I was 31 years old, had never done live radio before and they decided to take a chance on me and train me on how to do a live radio broadcast in the morning,” Moulthrop recalled. “I had never done anything like that before, but I loved it.”

“Our democracy – this republic of the United States of America – is precious, and though it’s got longevity, it’s fragile.” Moulthrop would arise at about 3:30 a.m., drive down to the station on Chester Avenue, watch the sunrise from there, read the news and conduct interviews. “It’s really hard to get up that early in the morning,” he quipped. In 2005, Jim Foster, Moulthrop’s predecessor at The City Club, invited him to moderate the mayoral debate among Frank G. Jackson, then-Mayor Jane L. Campbell and others. His ideastream colleague, Mark A. Rosenberger, prepped him for the debate. “I fell in love with The City Club and I fell in love with Cleveland,” Moulthrop said. “And I fell in love with the whole project of convening the needed conversation. So, it’s no surprise that whenever The City Club asked me to moderate a panel, I would say yes whenever my calendar would permit it. And when I had the opportunity to take on the 9 o’clock hour, (on WCPN) which we considered a town hall of the airwaves, I really just enjoyed that job tremendously. And that’s kind of what set me on this course.” He eventually joined The City Club as a member, and then became involved with its committees. In 2010, he left ideastream to work for The Civic Commons, a digital project to create a social environment for civic dialogue. By early 2013, Moulthrop became aware Foster was planning to retire and Foster encouraged him to apply for the job. Moulthrop said he was impressed by the work of The City Club because of his knowledge of a similar organization, Commonwealth Club of California, which was founded in 1903. cjn.org/source

DIFFERENCE MAKERS “I was aware of how these kinds of organizations can have an impact on the communities they serve,” Moulthrop said. In May 2013, Moulthrop was tapped as the next CEO of The City Club. “I was thrilled,” he said. “There was a perception in the community that I was kind of a leader because of the public-facing roles that I have had. In reality, I never had had the responsibility of leading an organization. While I led some projects here and there, I certainly hadn’t led an organization like The City Club, and I felt somebody just handed me the keys to a vintage Rolls-Royce or something like that. I’m not the valet, I’m going to take it for a ride.”

TAKING CITY CLUB INTO THE FUTURE Under Moulthrop’s leadership, The City Club has increased from 777 members to 909 members, or 17%. It has about a $2 million budget derived from ticket sales, private catering operations, contributions, philanthropic efforts and an endowment. The number and diversity of programs have increased, and programs have been created to reach a younger demographic. He credits “brave leaders” like the late Stanley Adelstein, the late Mort Epstein, Art Brooks, Bob Lustig and many others who worked to grow the endowment. Many city clubs that were launched before the Great Depression experienced financial challenges and failed to survive. The City Club of Cleveland however, founded in 1912 by Rabbi Moses J. Gries and others, is the second oldest in the country. When Moulthrop took over, he plastered his walls with sticky notes about ways he wanted to change the direction of The City Club. “When I first got here, it was hard to say, ‘What’s the business of The City Club?’” Moulthrop remembered. “Are we a speakers series, are we a place for lunch, are we events? And my own point of view is that we were in the business of helping people participate in democracy, equipping people to participate in democracy, but in coming to the forum itself, that is an act of participating in democracy.” Now, he wants to grow the organization’s profile across the state and country. “Our democracy – this republic of the United States of America – is precious, and though it’s got longevity, it’s fragile,” he said. “We don’t get to keep it unless we work at it. We’re not entitled to this democracy. We only get to pass it onto the next generation. We do what it takes to make it strong and engage as many people as we can. “I believe that what we do here is unique and is fundamentally important to the strength of democracy. There’s no place else in America (where) for the price of lunch you can be in a room with a presidential candidate, or a sitting president or some national-level thought leader who is shaping the future of policy and the future of our economy.” Moulthrop considers himself a secular Jew. “I joke frequently that I am not exactly Jewish, I am ‘Jew-ish,’ with the emphasis on the ‘ish,’” he said. His father is not Jewish, and the family grew up in a secular household in New Jersey. “We were like culinary Jews, we made latkes and applesauce and brisket when it was the right time of the year,” Moulthrop said. “We would have a seder at my aunt’s house.” He never celebrated a bar mitzvah, and the family did not

AGE: 46 RESIDENCE: Shaker Heights SPOUSE: Dorothy Russo Moulthrop CHILDREN: Nico, 14, Elisa, 13, and Gabriel, 11 VERY FIRST JOB YOU WERE HIRED FOR: Paperboy for The Trenton Times in New Jersey GUILTY PLEASURE: Superhero movies. I love narratives and stories of all kinds. I should be the kind of person who reads more history, nonfiction and biographies, but when it comes to books – though I read widely when I can – left to my own devices, I’ll read young adult fiction. TALENT YOU WISH YOU HAD: I wish I had an ounce of the musical talent my kids have. What a joy it would be to be able to sit down at the piano and play for people. BEST ADVICE YOU EVER RECEIVED: Don’t take it personally. Whatever it is, whatever the slight or annoyance or affront. Most people do have good intentions. And anyone who doesn’t isn’t worth worrying about. VICE YOU REFUSE TO GIVE UP: Coffee. WHAT ARE YOU BAD AT? Lots of things. Probably too many to list. FAVORITE PIECE OF CLOTHING YOU OWN: A scarf from high school I wish I had never lost. FAVORITE PLACE TO UNWIND: My living room couch, in the winter, with a fire in the wood-burning stove. WHEN ARE YOU HAPPIEST? On a weekend afternoon, when there’s time to really make dinner, like roast a chicken, and I’ve already mowed the lawn, fixed something around the house and taken a nap. FAVORITE BOOK FROM YOUR CHILDHOOD: “The Catcher in the Rye” by J.D. Salinger WHAT ITEMS ARE ALWAYS IN YOUR FRIDGE? Whole milk, fresh spinach, yogurt, eggs, tortillas, three or four kinds of cheese, salsa, Vietnamese fish sauce, hummus and lemons. Probably some carrots, too. WHAT LOCAL RESTAURANT HAVE YOU DINED AT MOST THIS YEAR, AND WHAT KEEPS YOU GOING BACK? fire food and drink. Doug (Katz) keeps me coming back. And the hanger steak. And maybe the Manhattan. IF YOU COULD HAVE ANY ONE SUPER POWER WHAT WOULD IT BE? Flight. Definitely. BIGGEST PET PEEVE: People who think there’s good pizza in Chicago. BIGGEST FEAR: Honestly? That my kids won’t outlive me. attend temple or church. “But, I’ve had enough of my own personal religious experiences that have created in me a real commitment to that, I believe I see as a fundamental commitment or a religious or a spiritual commitment as a Jew to doing my part to improve the world, or repair the world or make it a better place to be a better human,” Moulthrop said. “Judaism talks about tikkun olam ... For me, it often comes back to my grandfather, who escaped from Ukraine on a freight train so he wouldn’t be cannon fodder in World War I. He came to the United States, eventually to New York, where a Jew could work as a tailor, and find a better life and be able to be a Jew and be free.”
