William Breman interviewed by Susan Illowsky on Janaury 7 and 28, 1990.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBill discusses his childhood in the south side of Atlanta, Georgia.  He talks about the neighborhood where he lived, the public schools he attended, and the neighbors, who were not all Jewish.  He talks about the Stein Junk Company where his father worked, and which was founded by his uncles Mose Stein and Max Breman. He tells how Stein Junk Company eventually became Stein \u0026amp; Company and later the Breman Steel Company.\u003c/p\u003e (general)","\u003cp\u003eMortimer William Breman was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on March 13, 1908. He was the son of Joseph Berle Breman (1875-1954), an immigrant from Poland who spent his childhood in Victoria, Texas and Sara Barnard Breman (1877-1970), a native of Chicago, Illinois.  Bill had two older sisters—Helen Breman Zageir (1903-1992) and Estelle Breman Goldman (1904-1998). The family moved to Atlanta, Georgia when he was five years old.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Atlanta, Bill’s father worked as an office manager at Stein Junk Company, a business started by Joseph’s brother-in-law Mose Stein.  Joseph’s brother, Max L. Breman, was also a partner at the company. In the course of time, Bill took over the Stein Junk Company and it became the Breman Steel Company.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBill lived on the south side of Atlanta as a child. Though many Jewish families lived in that area of Atlanta, the neighborhood was not homogenous and the family had both Jewish and non-Jewish neighbors. The Breman family lived first on Washington Street but moved to Jackson Street after the Great Fire of 1917. He attended public school at Pryor Street, Boulevard, and Forest Avenue Elementary Schools in Atlanta. He also attended Tech High School in Atlanta for one year.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBill’s family was members of the Temple, a Reform congregation. He attended holiday services and Sunday school there. He spent Sunday afternoons visiting and playing with his Jewish friends from Sunday school.  Since the Temple did not offer Hebrew lessons or perform bar mitzvahs, Bill was not bar mitzvahed. However, Bill’s family observed Passover with a seder, his mother lit candles every Friday night, and Bill did not attend school during Jewish holidays as a child.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1922, Joseph retired and the family moved to Asheville, North Carolina.  Bill completed high school in Asheville. He graduated from the University of North Carolina with a Bachelor of Science degree in Commerce in 1929. After graduating, Bill moved to New York City to work in the insurance industry, which was his major in college. The Great Depression of 1929 led to his unemployment after working at an insurance company for more than two years. He took other jobs in retail and sales in New York City, Rochester, and Buffalo, New York. Bill was then hired by his uncle, Max Breman, to work at Stein \u0026amp; Company in Atlanta.  Bill became president of the company and expanded it from a junk metal business into a steel fabricator.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen his uncle hired him, Bill relocated to Atlanta. He married Sylvia Goldstein (1911-1992), whom he had met during Rosh HaShanah services in Rochester. They had two children, Carol Breman Nemo (b. 1938) and James (Jim) Breman (1943-2017). The family first lived in a home on Oakdale Road in Druid Hills and then moved to a home on West Wesley Road.  Both of his children graduated from the Westminster Schools, a private school. They attended Sunday school at the Temple just as Bill had when he was a child.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBill joined the Standard Club, where many of his childhood friends were members. He never attended events at the Piedmont Driving Club since it would not admit Jewish or Black members until the Atlanta City Council prohibited such restrictions at private clubs.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen a scene at the Temple was filmed for the 1990 film \u003cem\u003eDriving Miss Daisy\u003c/em\u003e, Bill and his wife, Sylvia, appeared as extras.  Bill was acquainted with the playwright Alfred Uhry and his family, including Alfred’s mother Alene Fox Uhry, and Alfred’s grandmother Lena Guthman Fox, who was the basis for the character of “Miss Daisy Werthan.”  Bill had driven Alfred Uhry to Sunday school at the Temple when the families both lived in Druid Hills.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1979, Bill sold Breman Steel Company and retired. After retiring, Bill volunteered as a driver for DART [Dial-A-Ride-Transportation] and Meals on Wheels.  In 1992 Sylvia Breman died after an extended illness and he later remarried Elinor Angel Rosenberg (1922-2018).\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBill served in leadership positions in organizations throughout his lifetime that reflected his support for the State of Israel and for the civil rights movement. He served as vice-president and president of the Temple, as Atlanta Jewish Federation Drive chairman, and as president of the Atlanta Jewish Home. He was a life member of the Temple, the Atlanta Jewish Federation, B'nai B'rith Anti-Defamation League, and the American Jewish Committee. For his leadership and community service he received the B’nai Brith Man of the Year Award.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBill’s daughter Carol married and had two children.

Frank was arrested, tried, convicted and sentenced to death for her murder. The trial was the catalyst for a great outburst of antisemitism led by the populist Tom Watson and the center of powerful class and political interests. Frank was sent to Milledgeville State Penitentiary to await his execution. Governor John M. Slaton, believing there had been a miscarriage of justice, commuted Frank’s sentence to life in prison. This enraged a group of men who styled themselves the “Knights of Mary Phagan.” They drove to the prison, kidnapped Frank from his cell and drove him to Marietta, Georgia where they lynched him. Many years later, the murderer was revealed to be Jim Conley, who had lied in the trial, pinning it on Frank instead.
