Freedman, Samuel
Samuel Freedman (September 15, 1880 - 19xx) was a Russian-American printer and publisher active in New York City during the first half of the 20th century. Born in Bolnik, Lithuania, Freedman immigrated to the United States in 1887. Freedman owned his own printing shop by 1925 and continued to operate it through at least 1940. He was married to Anna Freedman, with whom he had at least three children, two daughters, and one son. We have been unable to locate any death records.
