The Mob, The Jews, & Israel”
Valley Chabad Center for Jewish Life presents “The Mob, The Jews, & Israel,” an evening with Myron Sugerman, the so-called last Jewish gangster, at a private home in Woodcliff Lake, February 2, 8 p.m. Known as the “chief rabbi” of the gambling machine business, Sugerman continued his father’s success in the sales and operation of slot machines, jukeboxes, cigarette machines, and anything else that ran on coins and provided amusement, all while dealing with powerful members of the Mafia, including the Genovese and Gambino families. Sugerman will discuss the mob’s impact on the American Nazi Party and its role in supporting the underground Jewish armies during Israel’s quest for independence.
