{"value"=>"<p>Personal papers and miscellany document Goldsmith's childhood, education, and family from her childhood in the 1930s to the 1950s. These files show us Barbara Goldsmith the individual, but also provide insight into the social milieu in which Goldsmith grew up and lived: wealthy New York during the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. Files include Goldsmith's school papers, projects, programs, and diplomas from Mayflower Elementary School, New Rochelle High School, and Wellesley College; and newspaper announcements and coverage of her marriage to Gerald Goldsmith. Yearbooks from New Rochelle High School and other items that belonged to Goldsmith's cousin and classmate John Lewis Cronson; and a service recognition certificate from the Medical Society of the State of New York awarded to her grandfather, Dr. Reuben Cronson, are included here. There are also personal papers of Goldsmith's father, Joseph Lubin, including some business correspondence, an insurance policy, military records, his application to be a Certified Public Accountant, and obituaries. Other files include poems, inventories of Goldsmith's records and books, and lists of library books she checked out. See also: Scrapbooks.</p>"}
