Historical Book

Dear Reiss Family,

Greetings.I am a freelance writer in Philadelphia -- I write for Harper's, GQ, etc -- and I am currently writing a historical nonfiction book about a famous explorer-naturalist who worked for the American Museum of Natural History.His name is Carl Akeley, and during the 1880s he lived in Milwaukee, and worked for the natural history museum there.During this period he was friends with an Arthur Reiss, who was a barber, and whose first wife was named Delia.I am hoping to find any information I can about Mr. Reiss.If you might have any information, I would be extremely grateful if you'd contact me.My email is jaykirk@comcast.net

Many thanks,
Jay Kirk
