Henry Wade. In addition, Kathy Forster Marot, daughter of the late Dr. Francis Forster, recorded an oral history with the Museum. [Note that this transcript misspells Dr. Forster's last name as \"Forrester.\"] - Stephen Fagin, Curator","Hillel Silverman was rabbi at Temple Shearith Israel in Dallas from 1954 to 1964. Although he knew Jack Ruby only casually prior to the assassination, largely since Ruby was not a regular at services, attending only sporadically, Silverman visited Ruby several times in jail following the shooting of Lee Harvey Oswald. As he recalled in his 2006 oral history, \"[Ruby] told me when I visited him in prison that he loved President Kennedy. He was a great supporter of President Kennedy, and he thought, he told me, this was a terrible, terrible tragedy and disaster that happened in Dallas. And he said he did not want Jackie to come back and testify in court, and he took things into his own hands.\" In addition to being widely identified as \"Jack Ruby's rabbi,\" Silverman is also known as the father of actor Jonathan Silverman, who was born three years after the Kennedy assassination. A prolific actor beginning in the 1980s, Rabbi Silverman's son starred in movies such as Caddyshack II (1988) and Weekend at Bernie's (1989). - Stephen Fagin, Curator"]},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"66163"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"11 1/4 × 8 5/8 × 1 1/8 in.
