Delegation Visit in Shanghai
Shanghai – A Miraculous Life
A presentation by Leah Jacob Garrick
Baghdadi Jews began arriving in the commercial port city of Shanghai in the 1840s, creating an illustrious community that lasted for a century. Prominent Sephardic families such as the Sassoons, Kadoories, and Hardoons thrived there and were able to help provide for Jewish refugees fleeing Nazi persecution when they flooded Shanghai during the Second World War.
Leah Jacob Garrick was born in Shanghai, the fourth generation of her family to live there. She had a “typical colonial upbringing – English girls’ schools, servants, and afternoon tea,” all incorporated into an observant Sephardic Jewish lifestyle. She lived through the war years under Japanese occupation and came to the United States as a student in 1947. She has returned to Shanghai as a visitor several times.
Leah Jacob Garrick established the Northern California branch of Volunteers for Israel and volunteered twice in the Israel Defense Forces. Her first of many visits to Israel was on a Hadassah scholarship as a Young Judaea leader in 1957. She has lectured about the Jews of Shanghai locally and in many countries, including Australia, China, Israel, and Spain.
