Magnes Collection of Jewish Art and LifeAbstract:
The goal of the Northern California Jews from Harbin, Manchuria project (1973-1975) was to document the history of the Jews
living in Northern California who had emigrated from Harbin, Manchuria. The project was undertaken by Mildred Mogulof and
Helen Bonapart, and the Judah L. Magnes Museum's Western Jewish History Center provided assistance to the project. Collection
consists of audiocassettes containing the oral histories of some Northern California Jews who had originally come from Harbin,
Manchuria and the transcripts of some of these oral histories; photographs; correspondence; newspaper and magazine clippings;
a book relating to the Jews of China (entitled Passage Through China: The Jewish Communities of Harbin, Tientsin and Shanghai,
(Tel Aviv: Beth Hatefutsoth, the Nahum Goldmann Museum of the Jewish Diaspora, Summer 1986, curated by Rachel Arbel)); and
a map of Eurasia. Transcripts exist for many but not all of the oral histories.
