The Forward was the largest Yiddish newspaper in the world. At its height, it maintained regional offices in major Jewish communities throughout the country, including the Hill District of Pittsburgh. The local offices handled advertisements and small news items. The Pittsburgh office was run for many years by Bess Topolsky, seen here seated at the desk in the center of the room.
