Today's mensch, Haym Salomon was a Jewish financial hero of the American Revolution.

Salomon was a Sepphardic Jew who immigrated to New York from Poland in 1775. He first achieved success as a merchant and then dealer in foreign securities. He was sympathetic to the Patriot cause and became involved with the Sons of Liberty. When war broke out in 1776, Salomon got a contract to supply American troops in central New York. Twice arrested by the British, he was able to escape ex*****on and make his way to Philadelphia.

Between 1781-1784 Salomon personally loaned $650,000 (in today's money that is more than $18,000,000) to George Washington and the war effort. It was with money from Salomon that Washington was able to feed and clothe his troops and win the final battle of the Revolution at Yorktown.

Salomon was also very involved with the Jewish community. He helped lead the successful fight to repeal the test oath that barred Jews and other non-Christians from holding public office in Pennsylvania. In responding to anti-Semitic slander in the press, Salomon said, "I am a Jew; it is my own nation; I do not despair that we shall obtain every other privilege that we aspire to enjoy along with our fellow-citizens."

Despite financial setbacks at the end of his life, Salomon’s name will forever be remembered for his contribution to the cause of American freedom.

Russian born Irving Berlin (Israel Beilin), the composer and lyricist, is one of the greatest songwriters in American history and his music forms a large part of the Great American Songbook.

Despite not being able to write music or play piano except in the key of F sharp, he wrote more than 1,000 songs that appear in Broadway musicals, Hollywood films and TV shows.

Many of his songs have become popular anthems including Alexander's Ragtime Band, Easter Parade, Puttin on the Ritz, Cheek to Cheek, God Bless America, White Christmas, and There's No Business Like Show Business.

His songs have been rerecorded by many of the greats including Bob Dylan, Linda Ronstadt, Frank Sinatra, Billie Holliday, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald and Leonard Cohen.

He decided that all the royalties from God Bless America go to the Boy and Girl Scouts and Campfire Girls.

Jerome Kern said "Irving Berlin has no place in American music - he is American music."
