Florence Mendheim
Florence Mendheim (1899–1984) was a New York Public Library branch librarian notable for her undercover surveillance of American Nazi groups in the pre-World War II 1930s. She was the daughter of German-Jewish immigrants and an observant Jew who practiced kosher dietary laws. Her personal papers, including documentation of her spy activities, are housed in the archives of the Leo Baeck Institute in New York.
==Life and career==
Born in Illinois, Mendheim attended Washington Irving High School in New York City and completed New York Public Library training in 1918. She worked in various NYPL branch locations over the next twenty-five years, receiving both a bronze and a silver service medal in recognition of her years of employment. Correspondence from library administrators and supervisors〔("Florence Mendheim Collection; AR 25441" ); box 9; folder 16; Leo Baeck Institute.〕 indicate Ms. Mendheim had chronic health problems that led to her early retirement in the late 1940s, although little is known of her personal life. She also served as secretary of the Committee for Arab-Jewish Understanding,〔("Mendheim Family Papers; AR 25010" ); box 3; folders 1-7; Leo Baeck Institute.〕 an organization attempting to negotiate compromise regarding the situation in Palestine in the late 1930s and 1940s. Mendheim's archives contain evidence of her literary aspirations as well, in the form of numerous manuscripts for articles, plays, poems, and stories.〔("Mendheim Family Papers; AR 25010" ); box 5; folders 1-15; Leo Baeck Institute.〕〔("Florence Mendheim Collection; AR 25441" ); box 9; folder 23; Leo Baeck Institute.〕 She was unmarried, and her papers were donated by her brother Arthur following her death at age 85.
