BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH top

Ferdinand M. Isserman was born on March 4, 1898 in Antwerp, Belgium. His family immigrated to the United States in 1906, settling in Newark, New Jersey, Isserman attended schools in both Antwerp and Newark, graduating from Newark's Central High School in June 1914.

In September 1914, Isseman entered Hebrew Union College (HUC) where, in conjunction with the University of Cincinnati, he studied for his bachelor's degree while training for the rabbinate. In 1917, he received a Bachelor of Hebrew Letters degree from HUC. In 1919, Isserman completed the requirements for a bachelor's degree from the University of Cincinnati and three years later (June 1922) he was ordained a rabbi. While in school, Isserman participated in various extra-curricular activities. He was on both the University of Cincinnati and the HUC basketball teams (lettering in basketball at the University of Cincinnati), he served as president of the HUC Literary Society in 1920-1921, and in 1921-1922 he was president of the HUC student body.

Upon ordination, Isseman became Assistant Rabbi under Rev. Dr. Harry W. Ettelson at Rodeph Shalom Congregation in Philadeldhia, Pennsylvania. He remained in this position for three years, during which he Studied at the University of Pennsylvania, receiving a Master of Arts degree in comparative religion in 1924.

In 1925, Isserman assumed the position of rabbi of the Toronto Hebrew Congregation ("Holy Blossom") in Canada. In Toronto, Isseman distinguished himself by arranging Canada's first pulpit exchange between a Christian minister and a Jewish rabbi.

In 1929, Isserman became rabbi of Temple Israel in St. Louis, Missouri, where he remained through 1963. Isserman visited Nazi Germany three times (in 1933, 1935 and 1937) and participated in many civic as well as Jewish oriented organizations. Some of his more prominent activities included: conducting weekly Jewish programs on local radio stations (1932-1963), holding an annual Institute on Judaism for the Christian Clergy at Temple Israel (1937-1962), serving as president of the University of Missouri Jewish Student Foundation (1940-1947), spending one year overseas during World War II with the American Red Cross (1943), serving as first president of the combined Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion Alumni Association (1950-1951), chairing both the American Jewish Tercentenary Committee of St. Louis and the American Jewish Tercentenary Committee of Missouri (1954), serving as the American chairman of the World Union for Progressive Judaism (1955-1956), and chairing the Thomas C. Hennings Jr. Memorial Committee (1960).

Rabbi Isserman's participation in the Central Conference of American Rabbis (CCAR) deserves special note. He was very active with the CCAR's Commission on Justice and Peace from 1942 through 1950, serving as chairman from 1942 through 1945. In 1942, Isserman helped organize and presided over the Commission's American Institute on Judaism and A Just and Enduring Peace, in 1945 he organized the Commission's Institute on Judaism and Race Relations, and in 1950 he helped organize the CCAR's Institute on Reform Jewish Theology Today.

Isserman died in March, 1972.

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE top

The FERDINAND M. ISSERMAN PAPERS (1870-1971) contain correspondence, minutes, reports, addresses, semons, lectures, photographs, nearprint and miscellaneous items which trace the career and activities of Rabbi Isserman, a Reform clergyman. The majority of the collection spans the years from 1919 through 1967; there are a few historical items which Isseman collected dating back to 1870 and scattered correspondence after 1967. The papers are divided into four series:

A. GENERAL FILE

B. SERMONS AND ADDRESSES

C. PHOTOGRAPHS

D. MISCELLANEOUS

The GENERAL FILE, SERIES A. (1870-1971) contains correspondence, minutes, reports, lectures, addresses and miscellaneous items, which reflect Isserman's rabbinic career (particularly at St. Louis Temple Israel) and his participation in the Central Conference of American Rabbis, the American Jewish Tercentenary celebrations, the HUC-JIR Alumni Association, the University of Missouri Jewish Student Foundation along with many other Jewish and civic organizations. The series consists of nine and one-half Hollinger boxes, alphabetically arranged by correspondent, organization or subject of correspondence. Persons or organizations for which there are less than five items are placed in the general files; unidentified correspondence is placed 'at the end of the series. The Box and Folder List along with Subject Tracings of this inventory serve as an selective index to the material in the General File.

SERIES B. (1922-1968) consists of fifteen Hollinger boxes of notes for, and typescript and manuscript copies of many of Isserman's semons and addresses. Rabbi Isserman's views on world, national and local politics, contemporary literature and controversies are often seen through these writings. The series is divided into two subseries, each chronologically arranged: 1. General and 2. Radio Sermons and Addresses. Partial indexes to the sermons and addresses may be found at the beginning of each subseries.

SERIES C. (1922-1968) consists of one folder of photographs depicting Isserman, his colleagues and some of the activities with which he was involved.

SERIES D. MISCELLANEOUS (1914-1968) contains one-half Hollinger box of personal and biographical material and five oversize boxes of scrapbooks concerning Rabbi Isserman's activities.
