Jewish citizens were prominent in the fields of publishing, photography and
motion pictures.
Jews were also active in such fields as music and the fine arts. The well
known composers, Adam Muncheimer and Ludwik Grossman, directed the Warsaw
Opera for a time during the 19th century. The primary founder of the Warsaw
Philharmonic (opened in 1901) was Aleksander Reichman, while its acclaimed
director for many years during the period between the two World Wars was
Grzegorz Fitelbe. Numerous Jews, both writers and poets, left their distinct
mark on the history of Polish literature (Julian Tuwim, Boleslaw Lesmian,
Antoni Slonimski, Mieczyslaw Jastrun, Wlodzimierz Slobodnik, Arnold Slucki,
Jan Brzechwa (a favorite poet of Polish children), Stanislaw Jerzy Lec,
Anatol Stern, Janusz Korczak, Bruno Schulz and others) made notable
contribution to Polish literature. In the world of art, many famous names are
the Seidenbeutal twins, the Gotliebs, Maurycy Trebacz, Roman Kramsztyk, Artur
Szyk, Leopold Pilichowski, and Marek Wlodarski as well as renown sculptors
Abraham Ostrzega and Henryk Kuna. Their works may be viewed in countless
Polish and foreign museums, as well as in the Jewish Museum of the Historical
Institute of Warsaw.
