Mark Olf

Mark Olf (May 15, 1905 - June 7, 1987) was a Jewish folksinger and recording artist. Accompanying himself on the guitar, Olf documented and preserved Yiddish and Hebrew folk songs, many of which he had heard as a child in Russia.
==Early years==
The son of Jacob Olf and Ida Krantz, Mark Olf was born in Bielsk, then a part of the Russian empire near Bialystok and the Belarus border. During the First World War, when Olf was in his early teens, he emigrated with his parents and his brothers, Abraham and Harold, to the United States, where they became naturalized citizens and settled on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Another brother, George, was born in 1922. As a youth, Olf enjoyed exercising police horses on the Coney Island beach, sparring with Golden Gloves boxers and acting in the 2nd Avenue Yiddish theater. He learned automotive trades in his late-teens and, from 1929 to 1937, was the proprietor of an automobile repair and service station at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge.〔Dates of proprietorship from copy of an application for a Teacher In Training License, Board of Education of the City of New York, December 27, 1937, in family papers. Also in the family papers there is a photograph of Olf standing in front of "Olf's Service Station" - and one of him exercising a police horse on the beach at Coney Island.〕 When the United States entered the Second World War, Olf served as an instructor of automotive trades to U.S. servicemen. At the time he met his future wife, the pianist Rubia Goldman, he was studying the violin. His avowed artistic interest, however, was playing the guitar and singing Yiddish folk music. The two married in 1938, and Olf launched his career as a folksinger - largely supported by his wife who, after receiving a Graduate Degree in Music Education, taught music for the New York City Board of Education. Rubia Olf also wrote the translations and transliterations for liner notes that accompanied Olf's recordings.
