Albert Einstein with refugee children

At his home (112 Mercer Street) in Princeton, New Jersey, one day before his seventieth birthday, Albert Einstein (far right) is visited by a group of World War II European Jewish refugee children. United Service for New Americans, an agency of the United Jewish Appeal (UJA), brought the children to the United States. The name of the girl wearing the light-colored coat is Leonora Aragones. The others featured in this photograph have not been identified. Newspaper accounts of the occasion feature different images from the visit and credit the photographs to various sources, most often news agencies. (Note: this photograph is one of fifteen in the collection, EB 127-EB 141, taken on this occasion.)
