Harold J. Lieberman grew up in a dysfunctional Orthodox Jewish home of Polish immigrants in Hartford, CT. In 1943 at age twelve, encouraged by his brother, Harold began trumpet lessons, which would ultimately set the course of his life.
Toby Elle chronicles the amazing life and career of Harold J. Lieberman, with a perspective only she could know - as his wife and constant companion for 50+ years.
