Morry Frenkel speaks with Peter Philippsohn OAM, President of the NSW branch of the Australian Jewish Historical Society (AJHS), about the history and work of the organisation. Peter describes the AJHS’s multi-year project to catalogue more than 13,000 photos of the Australian Jewish community and the various databases that are available free of charge to the general community and researchers. The databases include Jewish cemetery records, the names of Jews who have served in Australian military forces, Jews elected to parliament and those who have received honours.
