- History / Biographical
- Ann (nee Tarantour) was born in Montreal on December 23, 1926, the daughter of Sylvia and Maurice Tarantour. She was educated at York Street Public School and Lisgar Collegiate, Ottawa. In 1949, she graduated from Carleton College, specializing in the arts. In 1948, she married Art Lazear, commercial artist and display man. Art, who was born in Minsk, Russia on November 25, 1926, came to Canada with his family at the age of 18 months. He died on October 7, 2001. After studying Display in the United States, Art Lazear worked as a commercial artist and display man in Ottawa. Together, Ann and Art held the first husband and wife Jewish Art Show in Canada at the Odeon Theatre Lounge, in March 1956. Art became known throughout the years as Ottawa’s foremost display person. Ann had a 27 year teaching career with the Ottawa Board of Education (OBE). During her long and rewarding career with the OBE, she served as president of the Ottawa Public School Women Teachers Association, president of her branch of the Ottawa Secondary School Teachers Association and president of the Arts Council. Ann retired in 1988, and went on to paint both landscapes and portraits.

- History / Biographical
- Abraham Lithwick (b. 1897 Ritziv, Russia - d. 1953 Ottawa) and Dora (Rosenberg) Lithwick (b. 1897 Rovno, Ukraine - d. January 30, 1980 Ottawa) arrived in Ottawa on July 8, 1921. They were among the large group of immigrants that fled Russia and its programs in the early 1920's. They operated, Lithwick's, a wholesale and retail store in the Byward Market for 12 years. In 1937, the entire family left Ottawa for Melbourne, Australia where Dora’s father, brothers and uncles had immigrated. Because of an epidemic of infantile paralysis, they returned to Ottawa 15 weeks after their initial departure. Another reason was the unexpected aspect that the Lithwicks would be starting again as immigrants in Australia and learning a new set of rules and regulations for business. Upon their return, Abraham Lithwick turned to real estate and became more involved in the Jewish community. He died in 1953 after a short illness. Shortly after, Dora Lithwick began working toward establishing a home for elderly Jewish people. In 1963, the sod was turned for Hillel Lodge on Wurtemburg Street. Dora Lithwick was a founder and first President of the Ottawa Jewish Home for the Aged. In 1975, she was instrumental in having a religious chapel added to the home and it carried the name Abraham and Dora Lithwick Beth Midrash.
- Notes
- 1. Dora’s father in Australia was working in real estate. 2. Interview with Dora Lithwick gives an excellent overview of shop life during the depression in Ottawa.
