After graduating, Julius married Danyse Greenwald in 1951. He spent four years serving in the Air Force in Korea before moving back to Savannah and having two children, Cathy and Kenneth. Julius dedicated his life to running “Alexander Brothers,” a blue jean factory that he inherited from his father, before the business shut down in 1985. In 1989, Julius helped found Savannah Bank. Since his retirement, he and Danyse have been active Savannah philanthropists, supporting institutions such as Savannah Country Day School, the Telfair/Jepson Museums, the Savannah Music Festival, and Congregation Mickve Israel.

Julius begins by talking about his family history, describing how his uncle, Herman Myers, built the Savannah City Hall while he was acting city mayor and later opened the National Bank of Savannah. Julius then recounts his own childhood, including stories of joining a Boy Scout troop, attending Sabbath school, and playing with other Jewish boys. He recounts the standard practices of Reformed Jews at that time, such as holding bar mitzvahs outside of the Temple and only circumcising newborns in a clinical, rather than religious, setting. Julius goes back to detailing his personal life, sharing how he attended the University of Georgia and joined the college’s Jewish fraternity. He recounts how he first met Danyse before diving into a discussion of the major social events for young, Reformed Jews in the Southeast during the 1950s: Ballyhoo, Falcon, Holly Days, and Jubilee. Danyse recalls staying with friends while traveling for such events, as well as the major New Year’s celebration spots in Savannah. She goes on to discuss her dating life as a Jewish girl in Macon, her role in the organization of the Southeast Federation of Temple Youth, and discrepancies in the play The Last Night of Ballyhoo. Julius and Danyse close out the interview by sharing how they feel that Reformed Jews are ostracized by the Orthodox Jews in Savannah. Julius explains why he doesn’t like the United Jewish Appeal, and Danyse agrees that their time and effort is better spent finding ways to serve the local community themselves, rather than contributing to controversial, previously existing Jewish service organizations. \u003c/p\u003e (scope content)"]}},{"label":{"en":["Source Metadata URI"]},"value":{"en":["https://archivesspace.thebreman.org/repositories/2/archival_objects/29055"]}},{"label":{"en":["Rights Statement"]},"value":{"en":["\u003cp\u003eAll rights reserved.
