- History / Biographical
- Tamar Kofsky (nee Weinstein) was the daughter of a Montreal Labour Zionist supporter and Jewish school teacher, who was a founder of the Jewish Teacher's Union. She worked for Jewish organizations throughout her life. In the 1940s she married David (Duddy) Kofsky, a Montreal Labour Zionist leader. She passed away in 2005. The album was given by Tamar Kofsky to Labour Zionist Alliance director Reuven Shultz before she died. There are other Labour Zionist photos in the CJCNA collection donated by her and David Kofsky. The podium, bearing the previous logo of the Histadrut organization, was likely used between the 1950s and 1970s. It has no connection to Tamar Kofsky but was at the Labour Zionist Aliance office and was donated by Reuven Shultz at the same time.
