Rebecca Gratz Digital Collection hosts almost 900 letters to and from the leading Jewish woman of nineteenth century American Judaism: Rebecca Gratz. Our library staff has been working with partners to scan, organize, describe, and transcribe this extraordinary body of work.
 
The digitized and transcribed letters represent one of the most ambitious projects to further the study of American Jewish life. Rebecca Gratz’s letters are critical to a meaningful understanding of Jewish womanhood, Jewish education, social welfare, and Jewish experience during the Civil War – to list just a few areas.
