THE LIFE OF MAURICE POLLACK
1885-1918
Peter Farrer discovered the existence of Maurice Pollack through the
chance reading of an article in a magazine of 1902. Making contact with
Pollack family, and using the family press cuttings and albums, Farrer
has built up a picture of Maurice's career as an actor against a background
of children's theatricals in Birmingham at the turn of the century. This
has been set in the context of his father's birth in Upper Silesia (now
in Poland) and emigration to Birmingham, of his mother's previous life
in Austria and in the light of what it was possible to discover about Maurice's
later life.
