Eulogy
Daniel Cantor — March 4, 2012
Brother-in-law
Arthur Liebersohn was born in Washington DC on February 9, 1951. He was the youngest of David and Bertha Liebersohn’s four children, after the arrivals of Joe, Hope and Yona. He grew up in Chevy Chase, Maryland, and after high school, he left for the University of Wisconsin in Madison, where he studied economics. The indifferent high school student was all of a sudden invigorated by the life of the mind and got serious about academic work in college.
