Zypora Spaisman Obituary

SPAISMAN-Zypora. I mourn, together with her friends and family, the tragic passing of this celebrated Yiddish actress, friend, and colleague, first at the Folksbiene Theater and, most recently, at the Yiddish Public Theater, which she created two years ago to rave reviews. Zypora, I will miss your midnight phone calls. Irene S. Wolk, Advisory Comm. Yiddish Public Theater

I, too, mourn the death of this great woman. Zypora Spaisman introduced me to the world of Yiddish theatre, and nurtured me for 10 years in that beautiful world. Thank you, Zypora, for your your talent, your instruction, your strength, and your generosity. The world is a poorer place without you.
