100 Years of Love: Amishalom Gilutz
“I was born in 1910 in Ahuzat Bayit, at 24 Ahad Ha’am Street. I was one of the first kids born in Tel Aviv and the oldest of five siblings, children of Menhaem and Dvora Gilutz, who were among the founders of the city. I have a strong love and admiration for the people who came together and build Tel Aviv. I studied in the Gymnasium Herzliya and joined the Hagana. Since 1952 I’ve lived in the neighborhood of Tzahalah. I have three children and nine grandchildren. I find it unfortunate that the city has changed much. The founders of the city were devoted to education and work in a way that is hard to find today. However, there is still a lot of the original beauty left in Tel-Aviv. As … Read entire article »
