Salomon [Salo] Guttmann, Dr., husband of Sophie Guttmann (née Schifre Schenker), brother-in-law of Heinrich Schenker, a medical doctor. Evidently from Bukovina, nothing is currently known about his life prior to his marriage to Sophie on January 6, 1898. A Salomon Guttmann is listed as "Gemeindearzt" (community doctor) in Bossancze (Bosancea, in the Suczawa district of Bukovina) in 1907 (http://bukowina.info/Med.html). During September 1914, Schenker and Moriz Violin tried hard to find a position for him in one of the Vienna hospitals, petitioning senior doctors on his behalf (OJ 1/16, pp. 716–730). Schenker also sought the assistance of Sofie Deutsch for him (ibid, p. 721), while Mrs. Pairamall offered food to the two sons, Hans and Julian, through her food relief program (ibid, p. 728). By 1934, he is reported to have severely poor eyesight (A/289). For more information on the Guttmann family, click on Sophie Guttmannn. No correspondence between Salo Guttmann and the Schenkers is known to survive. Author: Marko Deisinger |
