Art Katz – A Treasure in an Earthen Vessel
Can you imagine Art Katz in white shoes and wearing a pinkie ring? Well, he did. Can you imagine an illiterate person like me, not going to school beyond seven years, and not being able to speak English when we met, being married to a man like him? Can you imagine Art Katz being mischievous like a naughty, little boy that is up to something he knows is wrong? That was a sight that only I perhaps would know. Some of you may know his laughter and smile, even his tears, but did you hear him whistle and sing? He had a lovely voice, and could he ever whistle! And while he whistled he would turn around like he was dancing and would tap his feet. Yes, he could be funny. Even on his deathbed, the funny bones cropped up.
In this booklet of memoirs, Inger Hava Katz sets forth the Art Katz she knew from her 44 years with him, told in her usual way: humorous, blunt, and earthy. She includes anecdotal stories from their family life, paintings and drawings by Art, and in typical Inger style, plenty of photos.
The proceeds from this booklet go towards making a library for Art’s books in the main house at Ben Israel.
