Scope and Contents
This series consists of personal and biographical materials. These materials encompass Rony's early life and family through correspondence, her father's diaries, and photographs; her daily activities through daily calendars; awards for her contributions to the field of labor history; and her personal relationships with friends through correspondence. Insight into Rony's interests in labor history, leftist politics, and civil rights can be gleaned from her father's diaries; both of Rony's parents were Hungarian Jews, and as her father describes, he was a Socialist and atheist by age 14.
