| dc.description | Sid died before the Legacy Lecture program was created. Fortunately he and I had created a Joint Memoir while he was still healthy. I decided to edit down that Joint Memoir to focus on Sid’s part. This editing is unfortunate because the Joint Memoir was a dialogue in which we bounced ideas and reactions off against each other. Turning dialogue into monologue creates some jumps that seem uneven. Still, this edited version covers the points Sid would probably have made had he delivered a Legacy Lecture. If you want to read the full Joint Memoir, it is on Deep Blue under my name. Here is my introduction, and then Sid’s “Legacy Lecture.” | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | Sidney Bolkosky was a Professor of History from 1972-2012. He got his doctorate from SUNY-Binghamton. His specialty was German intellectual history, modern Jewish history, and the Holocaust. He wrote four books and numerous articles. He was the Director of the Honors Program and head of the Voice/Vision Project that involved interviews with over 300 Holocaust survivors in the Detroit area. He did more than 200 of those interviews himself. He received the top three awards the university has, Distinguished Teaching, Distinguished Service, and Distinguished Research. He also was the William E. Stirton Professor, a three-year designation given to the top scholar in the University. Bolkosky was married to his high school sweetheart, Lori Aroesty. They had two children, Gabriel and Miriam, and two grandchildren. He died in 2013. | en_US |
